Samsung has officially commenced the Android 10 beta program for the Galaxy S10 range. Users in several countries are now allowed to test and install the early version of the OS on their smartphones. The handsets supported in the Android 10 beta program include the Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10+, as well the Galaxy S10 5G.

The beta of Android 10 is based on One UI 2.0, which brings features such as the new Focus Mode in Android 10, along with One UI 2.0 perks such as enhanced ‘Dark Mode’ and smaller notifications. The new update will also focus on other improvements such as digital wellness, new media controls, as well as other features that will be added to the beta program.

“Designed to simplify and streamline interactions, One UI has brought a unified mobile experience to Galaxy devices. Since its launch, Samsung has been refining the UX, while also expanding its capabilities to help users focus on the tasks that matter. Features are further enhanced to make the experience more natural, seamless and efficient,” explained Samsung.

Users in supported countries can now download and install the beta by registering via the Samsung Members app. Once they’ve completed the registration process, they should check for notifications and the beta should show up on their device. The program is now rolling out for users in South Korea, Germany, and the US, though Samsung is expected to expand the One UI 2.0 beta program to other countries as well in the coming weeks.

Besides, Samsung is also expected to add the Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy Note 10+ to the beta testing program by late October or early November.
