Samsung updates several dozen smartphones
An impressive list of compatible devices has also been revealed, including not only the latest flagship smartphones, but also many A-series models and Galaxy Tabs. The update will also touch many devices in the foldable range, from the Z Flip3 to the recent Z Fold6.
The upcoming Galaxy S25, which is expected to be unveiled on January 22, should come with One UI 7.0 directly. This information suggests that Samsung is speeding up its development cycle to deliver on its update promises.
Eligible devices include the entire recent A series (from A14 to A73), all Galaxy S from the S21 series, and a wide range of tablets including the Tab S8, S9 and their various variations. As always, one of Samsung’s strong points is its long software support, which allows you to keep your Galaxy smartphone for many years. We already know that mid-range models will benefit from at least 6 years of tracking.
However, it should be noted that this schedule is still subject to change, as Samsung is used to adjusting its plans based on user feedback and any technical issues encountered during the testing phase.
