Galaxy S23 grabs Samsung’s February 2024 update in the US
The February 2024 Android security patch is now available for the Galaxy S23 series in the US. Samsung has released the update for the factory-unlocked variants of the 2023 flagship trio. Carrier-locked units should also get the update soon, and so should the international versions of the phones.
Samsung’s February 2024 update is rolling out to the Galaxy S23 series
First reported by X user Tarun Vats, factory-unlocked Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+, and Galaxy S23 Ultra units in the US are receiving the February security update with the firmware build number S91*U1UES2BXAD. The OTA (over-the-air) package for the Ultra model weighs just over 402MB. The update for the other two models should also carry similar-sized files.
The official release notes supplied by Samsung state that the update only brings the latest security fixes to the phones. The Galaxy S23 trio isn’t getting anything more. The last major feature update for the lineup was One UI 6.0, which brought Android 14 with tons of new features and functional improvements. The phones will soon get One UI 6.1 with more new features and improvements.
Introduced with the Galaxy S24 series, One UI 6.1 is primarily about AI features. The new version contains AI-powered editing tools that let you quickly move or remove objects from images without much effort. You also get Live Translate for calls and many other AI features. It’s unclear if the Galaxy S23 series will get them all or if Samsung will limit a few to the latest flagships.
Samsung is expected to start rolling out One UI 6.1 to eligible older Galaxy devices soon. The Galaxy S23 trio should be at the top of the priority list. Older foldables and mid-range models will also get the update. We will let you know when the rollout begins. In the meantime, install the latest update on your Galaxy S23 to safeguard your phone from a bunch of security vulnerabilities, including a few critical ones.
The latest security release patches 69 vulnerabilities
The February 2024 SMR (Security Maintenance Release) for Galaxy devices patches 69 vulnerabilities. These include three critical Android OS flaws, some of which allowed remote code execution without requiring additional privileges. Threat actors could exploit those vulnerabilities to gain remote access to affected Android devices. Samsung should soon roll out the new security update to the Galaxy S23 trio globally. As usual, you can go to Settings > Software update > Download and install to check for updates manually.
