Galaxy S10 is Samsung’s first 5G phone from 2019. The handset did a solid 4 years in the market before Samsung discontinued its software updates on June 2023. However, the handset has now received an unexpected update, reminding us of the popular Vince Carter meme doing rounds with caption “I got one more in me”. Alongside the Galaxy S10, the Galaxy S10e and the Galaxy S10+ have also received the new update. Here are the details.

The update might not extend to all regions

As reported by Sammobile, the Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10e, and the Galaxy S10+ are receiving a new update on the Telcel network in Mexico. To everyone’s surprise, the update brings the latest September 2023 patch in tow and has the firmware version HWI1. It remains to be seen if the update will extend to other regions as well.

The chances of other regions getting the new update are unlikely. As we mentioned, Samsung has already ended support for the Galaxy S10. And the other two models, the Galaxy S10e and S10+, were also dropped from the support list in April 2023. It’s possible that Telcel Mexico is just feeling generous and gave their customers an additional update. Or maybe Samsung detected a serious vulnerability and decided to roll out a fix, which is not uncommon.

While the three aforementioned Samsung phones no longer receive updates, there’s one Galaxy S10 series model that will continue to receive updates until 2024 — the Galaxy S10 Lite. And that’s not because Samsung is particularly fond of the device, but because it was launched a year after the original four Galaxy S10 devices.
