However, there\u2019s one that the company surprisingly hasn\u2019t ever offered on its phones, while most other Android phones have it out of the box: network speed in the status bar. With One UI 9, the company is adding that to its phones as well.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Samsung has updated the QuickStar Good Lock module in One UI 9, and it adds a new option to enable the network speed indicator. Once enabled, your phone will display your internet speed right in the status bar, which can be very useful. The change was originally spotted by the folks over at SammyGuru.<\/p>\n<p>We have also checked on our end, and we can confirm that the feature is available with QuickStar in One UI 9. There\u2019s also a new \u201cOngoing Chip\u201d option in the module that wasn\u2019t available in previous versions.
