Last week, Samsung started rolling out the Android 12-based One UI 4.0 stable update for the Galaxy A72. The update soon hit other mid-rangers like the Galaxy A52 and the Galaxy A52s 5G. Now, it is also available for the Galaxy A42 5G.
According to SamMobile, Samsung has begun to seed the Android 12 stable update for the Galaxy A42 5G. The update is currently live in Poland with firmware version A426BXXU3CUL9.
The latest software update for the handset not only brings new One UI features but also Android 12 and December 2021 security patches. It is being rolled out in batches and should reach other regions in the coming days.
Users of the phone can head over to Settings > Software update > Download and install to check whether their unit has received the update. Since this smartphone is known as Galaxy M42 5G in markets in India, that device shall also get access to the update soon.
Anyway, unlike other Samsung handsets that have received the Android 12 update so far, the Galaxy M42 5G is only eligible for two generations of OS updates. Therefore, this one will be its last major software update as it had already received Android 11 last year. However, it will continue to get security updates.
