Samsung is actively testing One UI 8.5 Update for Galaxy M35, and the update has now appeared on test servers in India and Europe. This early spotting clearly shows that Samsung is preparing the next major software upgrade for its popular M-series smartphones.
The Galaxy M35 is currently running test firmware versions M356BXXU6DYL2 and M356BOXM6DYL2. These builds are not public yet, but they usually show up before Samsung begins a broader rollout.
One UI 8.5 is expected to focus more on performance tuning rather than big visual changes. Users can likely expect better system stability, smoother animations, and small refinements across the interface.

One UI 8.5 Update for Galaxy M35 Expands to More M Series Phones
Interestingly, the Galaxy M35 is not alone. Samsung has also started testing One UI 8.5 for other M-series phones, including the Galaxy M56, Galaxy M54, Galaxy M53, Galaxy M34, and Galaxy M17.
This clearly shows Samsung’s plan to keep its mid-range lineup updated with the latest software improvements. The M series continues to receive solid long-term support, which is good news for users.
Samsung has not shared an official release date yet. However, test server listings usually mean the stable update could arrive in the coming weeks or months.
Galaxy M35 users should keep checking for software updates, as One UI 8.5 may roll out sooner than expected.
