One UI and Android 9 Pie update now available for Samsung Galaxy Note 8 users in Malaysia

Android 9 Pie along with Samsung’s latest One UI user interface is now available for Galaxy Note 8 users in Malaysia. The One UI interface was developed for the Galaxy S10 and is now available for Note 8 users too.

If you’re a Note 8 user, make sure you download the new firmware as this will be the most significant update you can get for your device. It’s is such a major update that the interface on your Note 8 will look and feel completely brand new.

Aside from the significant change in terms of look and feel, the new firmware also brings with it several improvements and enhancements. You can check the full list here.

In addition to One UI, the Android Pie update brings a few other goodies as well like Adaptive Battery which is a feature that learns your usage patterns and adapts the device’s power usage and battery management accordingly. One UI also comes with the option to set a systems-wide night mode where the background and most design elements of the interface are presented in a dark colour to further save battery.

Fair warning, the update is almost 2GB in size so be sure to connect to a WiFi network before you download it.
