Samsung recently announced the Galaxy S10 series has reached the end of its life and will no longer receive software support from the brand. The Korean company removed dated devices like the Galaxy S10, S10+, and S10e from its public update schedule, however, Galaxy S10 5G was moved to quarterly updates as it was released later on. And now just days after the announcement, Samsung has rolled out a new update for the handset. Here are the details.

In news that will cause mixed emotions among users, the Galaxy S10 5G has started receiving a new software update that brings the April 2023 Security patch. Although it is unlikely that the updates will introduce any new features, S10 5G users can rest assured that it will at least address security vulnerabilities, providing them with peace of mind. Sammobile notes that the update is currently being rolled out in just one country and should extend to more regions in the days to come.

The April security patch for the Galaxy S10 5G is rolling out firmware version G977BXXSEHWC1. Users should be getting an OTA notification for the same. In order to download it manually, head to the Settings » Software update menu.

Samsung is so far the undisputed king of software updates in the industry, providing timely updates for its phones, tablets, and wearables. The company offers three years of OS updates and four years of security patches for devices launched before 2019. It gets even better for newer phones, with four years of Android updates and five years of security patches. However, as devices get older, Samsung moves them to a quarterly or biannual update.
