Samsung released the stable Android 13-based One UI 5.0 update for the Galaxy S22 series last month, and now it has started rolling out the stable builds of the software to the older Galaxy S21 series as well as to the S20 and Note 20 series. Currently, the update is being rolled out to the aforementioned devices in Europe, with a wider rollout projected in the coming days.
The Galaxy S21 series, which includes the Galaxy S21, the Galaxy S21+, and Galaxy S21 Ultra, is receiving the stable update One UI 5.0 update (software version G99xBXXU5DVJC) in Europe. As of writing this, there is no update available for the Galaxy S21 Fe. The smartphone will likely receive the latest software separately.
The One UI update for the Galaxy S20 series, and Note 20 series is rolling out with firmware versions G98xBXXUFGVJE and N98xxXXU5GVJE, respectively. It is currently rolling out in Switzerland and Germany. The update also bumps the Android security patch level to October 2022.
The Changelog of the update is not available right now because Samsung hasn’t announced the rollout officially. It should bring the new features the South Korean company introduced with the One UI 5.0. We can expect loads of visual changes, including new notification UI, icons, and more.
The update reportedly comes with smoother animations, but we don’t expect any earth-shattering changes. Also, One UI 5 will allow users to customize their lock screen and add more wallpapers. In addition, they will be able to set different call backgrounds for each contact. There are also new stacked widgets on the Home Screen.
