> 1 / 16

If security is important to you (and it should be) you should think about installing the Galaxy S10 Android 10 update soon after it arrives for your phone.  Samsung continues to push important security patches to the Galaxy S10 series and your Android 10 update should bring the latest patches from Samsung, and Google, to your device.  We expect upcoming versions of Android 10 to come with newer security patches. Remember, Samsung releases critical patches every month.  If you're curious about Samsung's security updates, you can read more about the changes on Samsung's website.  If you failed to download an older security update from a previous month, you'll get those patches when you go to install Android 10 on your phone.  Android 10 also brings several improvements to device security and you can read about those right here in Google's change log.
