Samsung is rapidly expanding its One UI 7 rollout, and the latest device to receive the update is the Galaxy Tab Active 4 Pro. The rugged, enterprise-focused tablet is now getting the Android 15-based One UI 7 update in South Korea, and a wider international release is expected soon.
The update arrives with firmware version T636NKOU8DYE8 and weighs approximately 3GB. In addition to the core OS upgrade, it includes the May 2025 security patch, enhancing system stability and safeguarding against the latest vulnerabilities.
Users in South Korea with the Galaxy Tab Active 4 Pro can manually check for the update by heading to: Settings » Software update » Download and install. Once downloaded, simply tap Install now, and the tablet will reboot to apply the update.
Android 15 and One UI 7 on Galaxy Tab Active 4 Pro
Originally launched in August 2022 with Android 12, the Galaxy Tab Active 4 Pro has since received Android 13 (One UI 5) in late 2022 and Android 14 (One UI 6) in 2023. With One UI 7, this marks the device’s third major OS upgrade, and it’s set to receive at least one more—Android 16 with One UI 8—in the future.
Samsung’s One UI 7 introduces a refreshed user interface that separates the Notification Panel and Quick Settings into two distinct pages. Animations and transitions have been improved for smoother interactions, while app icons receive a subtle design refresh.
The Quick Panel is now more customizable, featuring a built-in volume slider, and notifications appear larger and more legible. Users will also find new widgets for both the Home Screen and Lock Screen, along with advanced widget customization options.
Another noteworthy feature is the ability to auto-hide the taskbar when apps are opened, with a simple upward swipe bringing it back into view.
Introducing the Now Bar and Camera Upgrades
One UI 7 debuts the Now Bar, a multitasking enhancement that displays real-time activities such as navigation, media playback, sports scores, stopwatches, and timers. It provides users with a quicker glance at what’s running without switching between apps.
Additionally, the Camera app has been redesigned for improved one-handed use, and includes better grid lines and enhanced filter options—a small but welcome update for users who rely on the tablet’s camera for work or casual use.
With One UI 7 and Android 15 now on board, the Galaxy Tab Active 4 Pro remains a rugged yet modern tablet for field professionals and business users. Its robust hardware combined with Samsung’s latest software refresh makes it more powerful, intuitive, and secure than ever.
