We’ve been only 10 days in May and Samsung has already released security patches for a sizeable number of its devices. Recently, the company rolled out the update for Galaxy S21 FE, Galaxy A23, and Galaxy A52. Now, it’s the older Galaxy S20 FE’s turn to receive the May 2023 security patch. The update is currently being seeded to the 4G Snapdragon version of the handset. Separately, the Galaxy A73 is also picking up the latest security update.
Galaxy A73 & Galaxy S20 FE get security boost with latest update
As reported by Sammobile, the May 2023 security patch is rolling out to the Galaxy A73 with firmware version A736BXXS3CWE1. Currently, the update is only being seeded to the units in Brazil but we can expect it to expand to more regions shortly. The outlet says the update comes packed in 227.29MB download, hinting it doesn’t bring any new features except some minor bug fixes.
Similarly, the Galaxy S20 FE is receiving the latest May security patch with firmware version G780GXXU4EWD2. The update is currently available in Russia and is expected to roll out to more countries within the next few weeks. To remind you, this handset was unveiled back in 2020, and according to Samsung’s update policy at the time, it will not receive any major updates but will continue to receive security patches for two more years.
Users of the above-mentioned devices should be getting an OTA notification for the update. If not, they can install the update manually by heading to Settings » Software update and tapping Download and install. Security patches usually don’t affect your data but it’s always a good idea to keep a backup.
