While dark themes look better and help save our eyes from strain in dark environments, they can cause visibility issues during sunny hours. In case you want some great themes with a light and white background, here are some of the best light themes for Samsung devices running One UI 5 and One UI 6 (Android 14). After testing around 70 themes on the Galaxy S24 Ultra, I’ve picked 20 light themes for Samsung. Our list of Samsung themes contains the best paid and free themes available in the Theme Store.
Note: Since we can’t share the download links to the Samsung themes, you’ll have to search for the themes in the Galaxy Themes app.
- Open Settings > Themes.
- Tap the Search icon and type the search keyword mentioned after each theme.
We also have a carefully curated list of the best dark themes for Samsung One UI. Check them out before exploring the light themes.
