I downloaded One UI 8 this morning and there are two problems I've discovered and reported to Samsung.
First, DeX has been completely reworked from its original design and is now a version of Android 16/Google's desktop effort. Lost are a number of features, but the biggest bug is with launching apps. After opening an app for the first time, I had to resize it and place it on my monitor where I wanted it (not a problem). After closing the app and relaunching it later, it did not remember its size or location. It opened back up at its default position and size. (very cumbersome and not user friendly at all).
Second, in Samsung Wallet, it is impossible to either open your Samsung Money by SoFi account or tap on a card to see payment histories. When you try to do that, the app sends you to the Perks page. Thankfully, you can still use the Samsung Pay feature in Wallet, and you can still access your passwords, if you use Samsung Pass.
just a PSA
