The Samsung Galaxy S8 Could Have Gotten One UI 4

So, after installing One UI 4 on pretty much a lot of my devices, I realized that my Galaxy S8 could have easily supported this software, and it just goes to show how beautiful/how great of a phone this specific device was. Now, the Galaxy S8 stopped getting support a couple of years ago, and overall it’s still pretty good, it’s still somewhat current, but when you actually look at a device that has One UI 4 installed, you will see how many similarities there are between these versions of software.

One thing I loved about the new phones is the gesture-based design, unfortunately, the Samsung Galaxy S8 doesn’t have it (fully), but this phone could have easily supported it. On top of that, this phone still has a Micro-SD card slot, USB-c port, and headphone jack as well, that is an amazing amount of input to have on a device like this! This phone is still a fairly decent performing device as well, it really isn’t that slow, and that just makes me think that this device could have supported One UI 4.
