One UI 8 to Deliver Smoother, More Fluid Animations

The One UI 7 stable update release already brought about some major significant features and changes that not only tossed up the excellence of Android 15 but also allowed users to make the most out of the latest build. Meanwhile, it’s already asserted that One UI 8 is supposed to bring more upgraded functionalities; a recent leak suggests more enhanced animations.
Basically, according to the assertions made by a user, GamerOmega, via X, showing off a short video that displays that the One UI 8 update could house more smooth animations when opening more than 2 apps at once.

The leak states that Samsung is supposed to infuse a new and much better animation engine with One UI 8 that will prevent the system UI from lagging when opening more than 2 apps at a time, just like it did with One UI 7, while also providing an insanely smooth and efficient animation experience to the users without any lag or glitch.
At the same time, it’s noticeable that One UI 8 is still running in its early development stages; thus, it’s possible that Samsung could incorporate more improvements and efficiency in the upcoming OS ahead of its official release.
Well, a previous leak from the same user mentioned above significantly stated that One UI 8 will entirely change the functionality of the Now Bar feature for the Galaxy Z Flip phones. Now, it looks like Samsung’s One UI 8 will adopt various upgraded enhancements that were lacking in One UI 7.
