A fresh firmware update with the October security patch is currently rolling out to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2. It has currently only hit South Korea where it has been released for multiple carriers including LG U+, KT Corporation, and SK Telecom.
The update can be easily identified by its firmware version of F916NKSU1DUI4 (via: Sammobile). A changelog for the same seems to be unavailable at the moment but a few improvements can be expected along with the bump in the security patch version.
It is worth mentioning here that the Galaxy Z Fold2 is not the first foldable from Samsung to have received the October update. It is preceded by the recently released Galaxy Z Fold3 and Z Flip3 foldable phones that were one of the very first to bag the said update.
If you reside in South Korea and are still waiting on the update to roll out for your phone, then you might want to head over to Settings > Software update to check for it manually.
And as for those residing in regions other than South Korea, the update should be rolling out in the coming days. A notification will pop up when it arrives, so stay tuned.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold2 was released last year in September and still holds up well even by 2021 standards thanks to its cutting-edge foldable tech made possible by its dynamic AMOLED 2X 120Hz HDR10+ foldable display. It packs a 4500mAh battery and is powered by the Snapdragon 865+ processor. It currently runs One UI 3.1.1 and should be getting Android 12-based One UI 4 when it arrives.
