One UI 8.5 Ready To Attend: Samsung Creates Smart Features To Save Data During Social Media Scrolls
JAKARTA - Samsung is preparing an interesting surprise in its latest interface update, One UI 8.5. The latest leak says this system will bring a new feature called Adaptive Data Saver, which is designed specifically to save internet quotas when social media scroll users such as Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube without compromising the quality of the display.
So far, scroll activity in social media applications is known as the main cause of battery and data waste, as videos continue to be published in the background even when users don't actually watch them. According to the Android Authority report, the Adaptive Data Saver feature found in the initial build One UI 8.5 will set how the app loads videos. Instead of automatically downloading every video when the user scrolls, the system will only load content when the user stops or presses the video.
Although simple, this concept can have a big impact. By preventing the prefetching process (data summons before the content is displayed), Samsung seeks to make data usage more efficient without making the user experience feel slow or decrease in quality. Interestingly, based on the code string found, Samsung guarantees the quality of the video remains the same, meaning that users can continue to enjoy content in high resolution without fear of leaking quotas in vain.
There are no definite details on how this feature works behind the scenes, but technically, the system seems to be rearranging the app's prefetting behavior in order to only load the data that is really needed. If the implementation is successful, this feature could be a savior for users who often run out of quotas due to daily militscrolling.
Although One UI 8.5 reportedly experienced a slight delay in releases, this update seems to bring real changes in the efficiency of device use. If it is true that it is present in the stable version, Samsung not only protects user privacy from tracking applications but now also protects internet quotas from social media 'hung attacks'.
