One UI 8 isn't nearly as big an update as One UI 7 was. However, not everything that is new has been revealed by Samsung in the official One UI 8 changelog. Some new features are being unearthed by One UI enthusiasts by digging through One UI 8 apps. Some new features are coming to Samsung Notes as well.

Digging through a new version of Samsung Notes for devices running One UI 8.0, some new features were spotted by X user @theordysm. As you can see in our screenshots below, a customizable toolbar lets you place only the tools you need. You can even arrange the order of those tools through a new customization menu that can be accessed by long-pressing the toolbar.

There is also a slight change in the UI design of the Default Note Style menu from Samsung Note's Settings section. It now has a landscape layout for notes. Earlier, it only had two options: Normal and Long. The screen for selecting scroll direction and notes color has also been changed.

Samsung appears to have added Filters in the search screen, making it easier to search for notes by tapping prelisted filter chips. Templates for notes and PDFs remain the same, but the selection screen's design has been updated compared to One UI 7.0.

Samsung has also added the Math Solver feature to phones with the S Pen. This feature was introduced with the Galaxy Tab S10 FE series, and it looks like the feature is being expanded to Galaxy smartphones with the S Pen. We tried finding it on the Galaxy S25+ (which doesn't have an S Pen), but we couldn't.

This new version of Samsung Notes could be released by Samsung in the coming weeks. It could first come to the Galaxy S25 series and then to othe devices that are compatible with One UI 8.0.
