”making its way onto phones. This raises two questions for Samsung’s billion-plus users. Will your phone receive the update? And if so, when? As ever with Samsung and updates — it’s more complex than it should be.. If you’re on the monthly schedule, you are certain to receive the fix this month. If you’re on the quarterly or biannual schedule, that’s less clear — but your phone will eventually be patched. As for when the update will turn up this month, that’s where it gets tricky.

This is awkward optically for Android’s largest OEM., “Samsung’s September security patch has only reached a few phones so far. Specifically on older flagship series Galaxy S23 and S22 and this year’s puzzles — Galaxy Z Fold7 to Z Flip7."confirms the S23 Series, Z Fold7, Z Flip7 and most recently the Z Fold5 and Z Flip5 have received the update. But remember, this also varies by region and carrier. There’s no discernible logic to the rollout order, beyond newer flagships going first. “To check for updates,” the website explains, “navigate to Settings>System updates>Check for system updates.

You can assume the emergency update is included. Whilst you await your own update, just take care on the apps you install and the links you click. And keep checking for the update to install when available. If your phone is no longer eligible for security fixes, it’s likely time to consider an upgrade.
