Normal users can not access internal builds, but their discovery on Samsung's servers strongly suggests that the public beta release of One UI 8.5 may be a few weeks away.

Samsung was earlier expected to bring the One UI 8.5 public beta in November, but the release was said to be delayed due to changes in the possible launch timeline of the Galaxy S26 lineup. Now that a new test build has surfaced, it seems those delays may be over.
