Samsung has been rolling out the One UI 6.0 based on Android 14 update for a number of Galaxy handsets over the last several months. The majority of flagship smartphones and a few mid-range smartphones have already received the update.
Now, Samsung has released a new December 2023 OTA update to the Galaxy Z Flip 5. The update has initially appeared in two countries—Ukraine and New Zealand. It is the Galaxy Z Flip 5’s second Android 14-based update (available in select countries) and it offers only the latest security patch.
Similar to other Samsung Galaxy smartphones, the December update for the Galaxy Z Flip 5 addresses 16 software vulnerabilities that are specific to Samsung and 54 security flaws found in the Android operating system.
Since it is powered only by a Snapdragon chip globally, it is not eligible for updates for vulnerabilities that impact select Exynos chips.
It will see a broader distribution in the next few days and comes with a firmware version that ends in BWKM or BWL2, depending on the nation. You can get the most recent update for your Galaxy Z Flip 5 by heading to the Settings app, tapping on Software Update, and then tapping on Download and Install.
