If you own a Samsung Galaxy S20, S20+, or S20 Ultra, this news might make your day a little bit better. While these phones have passed Samsung’s initial software support timeframe, they won’t be completely left behind in terms of security, Samsung claims. Instead of the usual monthly updates, Samsung is transitioning these models to a new schedule of quarterly security patches. This means you’ll receive security updates every three months for an unspecified duration.

However its unclear if Samsung will extend support for the S20 FE as well

The news is slightly better for the Galaxy S20 FE. This model will continue to receive monthly security updates for a while longer. It’s unclear yet whether Samsung will extend support for the S20 FE with quarterly updates after its four-year software support cycle ends.
