Samsung’s confirmed plans to keep some Galaxy devices updated with security patches for four years. The company says by “extending support for security updates delivered on a monthly or quarterly basis, Samsung is giving users peace of mind knowing their data is protected for as long as they use their Galaxy device.”

Here’s the list of eligible Galaxy devices:

Samsung notes that its “lists of security update models are subject to change and will be reviewed on a periodic basis.” We’ll let you know if anything changes.

Other devices under the enterprise umbrella will get four years of support.

Samsung also released software alongside the Galaxy S21 series (Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+, Galaxy S21 Ultra). The firmware is unsurprisingly based on Android 11.

The Galaxy S21 series runs an updated version of One UI, dubbed One UI 3.1, out of the box. And while the updated UI was initially exclusive to the Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+, and Galaxy S21 Ultra, it’s moving out to other devices.

Samsung’s pushing One UI 3.1 to the Galaxy Tab S7 and Galaxy Tab S7+ and it brings new features like Auto Switch, Second Screen, and Wireless Keyboard Sharing.

One UI 3.1 updates are also hitting the Galaxy S20 FE, Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+, Galaxy S20 Ultra, Galaxy Z Flip, Galaxy Z Flip 5G, Galaxy Z Fold 2, Galaxy Fold, Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10+, Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10 Lite, Galaxy Note 10, Galaxy Note 10+, Galaxy Note 10 Lite, Galaxy Tab S6, Galaxy A90 5G, Galaxy A71 4G, Galaxy A70, Galaxy A70s, Galaxy A51 5G, Galaxy A51, Galaxy A50, Galaxy A50s, Galaxy A30, Galaxy A11, Galaxy M51, Galaxy M31, Galaxy M31s, Galaxy M21, Galaxy M11, and others.

Samsung’s also pushed out a newer version of One UI 3, dubbed One UI 3.1.1, to select Galaxy devices. The company doesn’t note the version number in the Settings menu or change log, but it is indeed a new version of One UI 3.

The One UI 3.1.1 update has several changes on board including performance upgrades, a new quick setting toggle for Bedtime Mode, and improvements to stock apps.

The software is cruising out to the Galaxy S21 series, Galaxy S20 series, Galaxy S10 series, Galaxy Note 20 series, the Galaxy Note 10,  Galaxy Z Fold 2, Galaxy Z Flip 5G, Galaxy Z Flip One, Galaxy Fold, and the Galaxy A52 5G.

These Galaxy Devices Will Get Android 11

Samsung typically keeps devices updated with major Android software updates for two years. Fortunately, the company has changed this policy.

The company says it’s committed to providing three years of major software upgrades going forward. This is obviously a huge development.

Initially it looked like this might only apply to higher profile devices, but according to Samsung, lengthier support will also be extended to other devices. Sadly, it doesn’t cover older models like the Galaxy S9, Galaxy S9+, and Galaxy Note 9.

Here’s the full list:

• Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+, Galaxy S21 Ultra, Galaxy S20 Ultra 5G, Galaxy S20 Ultra, Galaxy S20+ 5G, Galaxy S20+, Galaxy S20 5G, Galaxy S20, Galaxy S10 5G, Galaxy S10+, Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10e, Galaxy S10 Lite, and upcoming S series devices.

• Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G, Galaxy Z Fold 2, Galaxy Z Flip 5G, Galaxy Z Flip, Galaxy Fold 5G, Galaxy Fold, and upcoming Z series devices.
• Galaxy A71 5G, Galaxy A71, Galaxy A51 5G, Galaxy A51, Galaxy A90 5G, and select upcoming A series devices.
• Galaxy Tab S7+ 5G, Galaxy Tab S7+, Galaxy Tab S7 5G, Galaxy Tab S7, Galaxy Tab S6 5G, Galaxy Tab S6, Galaxy Tab S6 Lite, and upcoming Tab S series devices.

These Galaxy Devices Won’t Get Android 11

Any Galaxy device that’s not on that list is currently on the fence when it comes to Android 11. That means popular devices like the Galaxy Note 9 and Galaxy S9 series are very much in danger of getting left behind on Android 10.

Here are a few Samsung Galaxy devices that will most likely stick around on Android 10:

• Galaxy S9
• Galaxy S9+
• Galaxy Note 9
• Galaxy A9 (2018)
• Galaxy A8 (2018)
• Galaxy A8+ (2018)
• Galaxy A7 (2018)
• Galaxy A6 (2018)
• Galaxy A6+ (2018)
• Galaxy Tab A 10.5 (2018)

Older models like Galaxy S8 and Galaxy Note 8 probably won’t get upgraded to Android 11 either. Neither device has been upgraded to Android 10.

Wait for Even Better Performance

> 1 / 8

You can expect the Galaxy S22 series to build on the foundation left behind by the Galaxy S21 series and offer improved performance in a number of key areas. Per usual, you can expect the Galaxy S22 to come with an Exynos processor in some markets and a Qualcomm chipset in others.  Nothing's confirmed, but there's a very good chance the Galaxy S22 utilizes Qualcomm's next-gen Snapdragon processor. It should be the processor that powers the Galaxy S22 series in most markets.  Initially it looked like the chip would be called the Snapdragon 898, but it's actually called Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. The processor has already shown up in Galaxy S22 benchmarks, multiple times, which is a great sign. As for the Exynos side of things, Samsung's revealed a new version of the processor with AMD graphics. It's called Exynos 2200. Like the Snapdragon, we've seen the Exynos 2200 appear in early benchmarks. The processor has shown up on the Galaxy S22 Ultra.  New processors should help the Galaxy S22 series deliver even better performance in key areas like speed, battery life, gaming, and multitasking. Here's how the Galaxy S22 processor situation will shake out based on region. This leak comes from Twitter user Dohyun Kim: Europe: Exynos North America: Snapdragon  South America: Snapdragon East Asia: Snapdragon South East Asia/Oceania: Snapdragon West Asia: Exynos & Snapdragon Middle East Asia: Exynos & Snapdragon Africa: Exynos & Snapdragon Another leak points to the Snapdragon models launching in China, Japan, Latin America, North America, South Korea, and Southeast Asia. The Exynos models will reportedly arrive in Africa, CIS (Commonwealth of Independent States), Europe, the Middle East, and Southwest Asia. The Galaxy S22+ and Galaxy S22 Ultra batteries have passed 3C certification. The Galaxy S22+ is listed with a 4,370 mAh battery (probably a 4500 mAh capacity) while the Galaxy S22 Ultra is listed with a 4,855 mAh battery (probably 5000 mAh capacity).  The Galaxy S22 battery has also received certification in South Korea and it's listed at 3,590 mAh which probably means 3,700 mAh.  The Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22+ have also visited the FCC in the United States with the Galaxy S22+ listed with the same 4,370 mAh battery. Digitimes is also saying that Samsung is "reconsidering adopting vapor chambers for its new smartphones for 2022." This could help the devices run at peak performance for longer periods of time.  The report doesn't mention the Galaxy S22 series, but there's certainly a chance the flagship devices adopt this technology. We've also heard that Samsung is currently testing improved charging power on the Galaxy S22. The information comes from leaker Ice Universe. He says the company is trying to bring charging power above 25W to 45W or 65W fast charging.  In a new tweet, Ice Universe says he's 100% sure the company will bring 45W wireless charging to the Galaxy S22 Ultra. This has seemingly been confirmed by a leak. If you're a power user and you aren't thrilled with what's out there right now, you might want to sit back and wait for the Galaxy S22 series.
