It seems like OneUI 6 is coming soon. However with the screenshots of the control centre UI, it seems like the 'one handed' UI focus is disappearing as more UI elements are brought higher...

I can't stand reskins on android. Launcher you can change,but system not,without bootloader unlocks at least. The bloat is real and a bitch to get rid of and even if you adb it,you still have the overall android reskin.

Why do these companies feel the need to bloat android to such extent is beyond me.

I used to hate Samsung's previous design, but OneUI isn't that bad and ads some genuinely better things than stock Android. That being said, I do miss some of the simplicity of stock, plus the genuine speed/responsiveness that it brings.

Hard disagree. From a graphic design standpoint, it is one of the most amateur interfaces I've come across in recent years. Their designers literally don't understand the basics.
