Whats up with the, No more Full Screen!? WTF? I have a Black Ring around my screen! Fkin Pathetic!!!!!!
Seems like that should have been taken care of since its a SELLING POINT to the phones! Full Screen to the edge.

Last Freaking update removed the S-View Cover Music Player abilities for 6 months...
Guess these clowns don't make enough money to do it right the first couple times, RIGHT!

What a Joke.

And Nothing about developer options fixes this. F off if thats your reply.

I was unable to get samsung voice to text to work in Samsung keyboard, I have to switch to Google Voice to text.
I get blue microphone by tapping the microphone button or hitting side button but it simply doesn't work.
It happened in a13 betas too and it's still broken.

[edit]: Seems like it's a problem with Samsung Keyboard with italian language, it needs to be updated. I found a thread on Samsung members forum about that, with screenshots from the new fixed version which I can't found nowhere...

%85 ..
the remaining 21%

one ui 4.1
...XXU5CVF2

that's why I don't want to switch to one ui 5. maybe I won't get this result..

 

[darkoj2007]

Is it me or Oneui 5 is less smoother than 4.1? Maybe Oneui 5 not polished enough with first release?

 

[amirage]

And so...the debate begins

Is it me or Oneui 5 is less smoother than 4.1? Maybe Oneui 5 not polished enough with first release?

One ui5 is WAY smoother than 4.1 for me.

@amirage didn`t mean to start storm hahhaha but for me personally 4.1 feels smoother.
@thanito I am glad to hear that. I did clean flash becouse I am rooted but qs pulling down and all system generally fells little strange, like skipping frames. This happened also with first releases of A12 for our device, after that all was good.

I did not even do a clean install, but it was that snappy that I had to set again the animations to 1x instead of 0.5x that I had them set in 4.1,because it felt abnormally fast in everything

I'm also having UI stutters and skipped frames quite often. So I agree with you that there are some issues on oneui 5.

I also did a clean install.

I also have a Z Fold 4 and it was the same, lags and stutters on the first OneUI5 update.

I had another update friday (BVKC) and it's already much better.

 

[enigmaamit]

Personally I find OneUI 5 to be way smoother than 4.1

Battery life is bettery as well for me, both standby and SOT with similar usage.

OneUI 4.x felt like a looooog beta release to me.

 

[pemoore]

Please when will one ui 5 be available in Africa( ECT) for s21 ultra SM-G998B

Can someone please check if they have system UI battery drain? It's the number one draining app for me

I am having that issue. It's always in my top 3 draining apps.

Do you have watch app connected to the phone? I have a feeling that Samsung Wear app could be tap responsible for this.

I have the app, but i rarely connect my watch to the phone. When it's not connected my bluetooth is off most of the time. So I'm not sure if that's the issue in my case.

I had my watch 4 classic connected all the time (via BT)

Well that settles it then... Now I need to find the cause for the issue. Gsam doesn't seem to work on A13... Despite removing all battery restrictions, the app keeps dying.
