Samsung Phone Themes Free Download
If you own a Samsung device, here are a bunch of hand-picked best Samsung themes for One UI or Android Pie in 2019. Most of the Samsung One UI themes in our list are either black or dark. Please note that if you have been looking for Samsung One UI theme apk, stop doing that and download the theme directly from the Samsung Theme Store.
Before I prepared my list of themes, I downloaded more than 80 themes and tested them on my Galaxy S9+, and a friend's S10. The dark Samsung themes listed below theme every aspect on the One UI including the lockscreen, phone UI, notification and quick settings drawer, messaging app, file manager, keyboard, calculator, and the systemUI. Some of them even have animation lockscreen animation. Try our 2019 edition of the 13 best black or dark themes for Samsung One UI or Android Pie.
There was a time when you had to root your Android device to be able to enjoy custom themes. The OEMs usually shipped their devices with one default theme (usually light or white). With the introduction of the Substratum theme engine, theming Android devices became easier. However, themes became a cupcake for all with Google integrating a dark or black theme with Android Pie. Just like other manufacturers, Samsung too rolled a dark theme known as "Night mode" which can be activated directly from the Quick settings panel.
The Galaxy S6/S6 Edge was the first Samsung device to come with an inbuilt theme store. Having made its first appearance in 2015, the Samsung Theme Store has come a long way. It now has thousands of free and paid third-party themes to choose from but not all themes support all devices. The compatibility of themes depends on Android OS version and devices. Thus, a theme that supports Android Nougat, may not work perfectly on Oreo or Pie. In this article, we have come with a list of the best themes for Samsung devices with One UI or Android Pie support. They should work on the Galaxy S10, Galaxy S9, Galaxy S8, Galaxy Note 9, and the recently launched Galaxy A and M series phones.
If you have been enjoying the One UI and are still not familiar with all its aspects, do not forget to check out our list of 10 interesting Samsung One UI features.
What Things do Samsung Themes Change?
According to Samsung's guidelines for theme developers, a good Galaxy Theme is one that includes:
- Home and lock screen wallpapers
- Ringtones, notification and UI tones
- Icon themes for Samsung apps and SystemUI icons
- The backgrounds and elements of all default applications including Phone, Contacts, Messages, Email, Calculator, Clock, etc.
As a topping, to give your Samsung Galaxy device a completely unique look, you can also install 1000+ custom fonts on your devices without root by installing Samsung Wings Fonts 3 that supports One UI.

The Black Onix theme for Samsung has been there since Android Oreo days. However, the theme started giving errors when Samsung pushed the Android Pie update.

Black Onix is undoubtedly the best Samsung One UI theme because it covers all aspects of the new UX and looks so cool with an awesome color combination of the blue and purple gradient.
The theme is completely free. I have been using it for months now without getting bored with it because no other free or paid theme is so appealing. You must try Black Onix!

Blac UI is my most favorite dark theme. With a black background and bluish highlights, the theme looks like some Substratum theme.
