Summary
-
For those who have updated their Samsung Galaxy phones to One UI 7, here are some suggested settings changes to make immediately to personalise your user experience
-
Try a horizontal app drawer rather than the vertical one that Samsung now defaults to; it’s a simple matter of opening the app drawer, tapping the three-dot menu icon, and selecting Sort > Custom order
-
Set a custom charging limit for your battery; in One UI 7, you can set a limit of 80%, 85%, 90%, or 95% to help preserve the life of your battery and reduce wear caused by frequent full charges.
-
Turn on Loudness Normalization to automatically balance audio levels; this feature first appeared in One UI 6.1.1 on some devices but is now available across more Galaxy phones with One UI 7.
-
Save your battery life while gaming by turning down the game refresh rate to 60Hz in the Game Booster settings; this won’t affect the smooth experience offered by the high refresh rate elsewhere on your phone.
-
Combine notifications and the quick settings panel into one unified view; this offers faster control than having to swipe down from different areas of the screen to access notifications or settings.
