5 Samsung One UI features you won't get with other Android phones
Samsung doesn't just make great phone and tablet hardware; its One UI is also a standout, offering many features you just can't get elsewhere.
Samsung's One UI software distinguishes its Galaxy smartphones from other Android devices. Boasting a multitude of unique features, One UI proves difficult to part with once users discover their favorites. One UI 9, the latest version of this skin built on Android 17, includes features that enhance multi-device computing and bolster security.
Samsung's extensive experience in audio production is evident in its distinctive One UI features that make music sharing and control simpler. With features such as Multi Control, users can effortlessly connect a mouse and keyboard to a single device and use them across multiple devices, including a Windows PC. This enables users to utilize their Galaxy devices as secondary monitors, perfect for tasks like running Spotify or managing calendars.
Multi Control has now expanded to work with any PC, not just Samsung computers. Android's audio handling often restricts users to a single audio source and output. Samsung's Separate App Sound feature allows users to configure individual outputs for specific apps, enabling music playback on the phone's built-in speaker even when connected to a Bluetooth speaker.
Additionally, Music Share enables other devices to piggyback on a Galaxy device's Bluetooth connection, making it effortless for friends to connect and play audio through the phone. Good Lock, Samsung's suite of customization tweaks, provides further options for users seeking to personalize their experience beyond the basic features.
