Na de introductie van Android 11, gaan fabrikanten nu aan de slag met hun eigen schil over Android. Samsung toont nu One UI 3.0. Hier vinden we een hoop nieuwe functies en verbeteringen.
One UI 3.0
Samsung heeft meer informatie naar buiten gebracht over haar eigen One UI 3.0 skin. De fabrikant legt deze schil over Android 11 en zoals je mag verwachten, zit deze vol met nieuwe functies en verbeteringen. In de komende weken zullen de toestellen uit de S20-serie klaargestoomd worden voor de beta. Helaas, niet in Nederland.
One UI 3.0 is voorzien van handige foefjes, bovenop de verbeteringen en nieuwe functies in Android 11. Je kunt het icoontje van een app op je startscherm ingedrukt houden, om zo een widget van die app toe te voegen. Daarnaast kun je (net als bij LG) dubbel op een lege plek op het scherm tikken om het scherm te vergrendelen. Ook de widgets voor het Always On Display zijn verbeterd en voor de Samsung Internet-app heeft de fabrikant gewerkt aan verschillende verbeteringen.
Samsung heeft verder gewerkt aan verbeteringen en nieuwe functies in Digital Wellbeing en ook voor de camera staan optimalisaties klaar. Denk aan de verbeterde autofocus en automatische belichting en verbeterde stabilisatie bij het maken van een ingezoomde foto van de maan. Met de fotobewerker kun je eerder bewerkte foto’s weer terugzetten naar het origineel.
Changelog
Alle nieuwe functies in One UI 3.0 zijn te vinden in de changelog. Die vind je hieronder.
