Another One UI 7 leak, by tipster chuvn8888, has popped up, this time previewing the One UI 7 lock screen. Notably, the leak comes from the same tipster who has previously leaked details about the One UI 7 Gallery icon, the icon and widget style, the camera icon and UI, the Quick Settings panel, and other One UI 7 features.
According to the One UI 7 lock screen screenshots, one of the most prominent changes is the new battery charging pop-up. In the current One UI version, the charging status is shown in simple text. But the alleged One UI 7 shows a dedicated battery charging widget with a big progress bar inside a pill-shaped widget.
Apart from the battery widget, the charging bar has also been tweaked. Notably, the charging bar is now placed between the redesigned phone and camera icons on the lock screen. The overall change with the alleged One UI 7 looks clean and more organized.
The phone and camera icons on the left and right bottom corners of the One UI 7 lock screen are now circular. The battery icon on the status bar is also now redesigned. It is now shaped like a pill and placed in the upper right corner of the screen.
Recently, the Samsung Clock app was updated, which introduced several One UI 7 design elements, including the leaked Clock app icon, rounded design, and more. For more One UI 7-related news, you can check out our dedicated One UI 7 news section.
