The first change users will notice in One UI 7 are the redesigned icons, which have 3D elements. The Gallery and Camera icons have changed completely, now looking more like Apple's, while other icons received minor updates.
In this screenshot, a stopwatch indicator can be seen in the top right corner. Such indicators are rumored to be Samsung's answer to Apple's Dynamic Island and Live Activities, showing status for some features. They can already be seen in One UI for calls.

This is One UI 7, with a brand new, yet familiar design.
Leaked screenshots and information about the new version of One UI, #Samsung's version of Android, were shared by Chun Bhai and Ice universe.
These screenshots reveal that One UI 7 will have a completely new design that's heavily inspired by iOS. This could be a response to Samsung losing market share to Apple in its home country of South Korea. Ice universe claims that One UI 7 will have ultra-smooth animations similar to those seen in iOS, and that beta testing will start soon.
One UI 7 will likely be announced at SDC 2024, alongside the XR headset Samsung is building together with Qualcomm and Google. SDC 2024 takes place on October 8.

Leaked ads for the #Pixel 9 series reveal new AI features.
OnLeaks has obtained 2 ads for the upcoming phones - one advertising the entire series and another advertising the Pixel 9.
Both ads start with a demo of Gemini suggesting a recipe based on a photo of ingredients. Then, the Pixel Screenshots feature, which is Google's rumored answer to Microsoft Recall, is revealed. Pixel Screenshots will show a list of screenshots tagged with apps they were taken in and a search bar. The ads show someone searching for a hair style someone named Alex sent them, and Pixel Screenshots showing a screenshot from their conversation with Alex about that hair style. Unlike Recall, Pixel Screenshots only works on screenshots that people have taken themselves.
Then, the series ad shows the "pro level camera" of the Pro models with Super Res Zoom Video at up to 20x range. Then, Add Me is revealed. Add Me can be used to add someone to a photo by asking to take another photo and merging the 2 photos, likely using Google AI. The Pixel 9 ad instead shows Magic Editor being able to "reimagine" a photo based on a prompt, hinting that Add Me and Super Res Zoom Video are likely not available on it.
Finally, the ads show that the Pixel 9 series is guaranteed to receive 7 years of updates. The Pixel 9 ad reveals that Pixel Feature Drops might be rebranded to "Pixel Drops". The series ad instead confirms that there will be 2 sizes for the Pro model. An earlier leak confirms that the larger model will be called the Pixel 9 Pro XL and that the Pixel 9 Pro Fold will be released alongside the other Pro models.
