One UI 9’s new Warranty hub means no more hunting for repair receipts

Samsung has unveiled new details about its Warranty and care hub, introduced alongside One UI 9 for its foldable devices. The hub consolidates warranty tracking, diagnostics, and repair appointments within the device's Settings. The official announcement confirms the addition of features such as Bixby troubleshooting, ecosystem device management, and side-by-side repair cost estimates.

The company has provided further insight into the Warranty and care feature, which was first spotted in an early One UI 9 build in March. In a blog post, Samsung elaborates on the workings of the support hub, presenting a more robust system for verifying warranties, identifying issues, comparing repair costs, and seeking assistance—all without leaving the Settings app.

The details previously uncovered in a teardown indicate that the feature was a work-in-progress, incorporating warranty information, diagnostics, repair services, and customer support. However, certain features were incomplete at that time. The latest revelation from Samsung confirms that the Warranty and care hub will serve as a central hub for managing care and support for Galaxy devices.

  • Ordered: false ensures operations continue even if one fails
