Samsung remains committed to user security as it approaches the stable release of One UI 7. The brand recently rolled out a new update for three of its popular models.

January 2025 Update Now Available for Samsung Galaxy S23 Series

The Galaxy S23, S23+, and S23 Ultra are the latest Samsung devices to receive the January 2025 update. This patch addresses over 50 security vulnerabilities and was first launched in India. It is expected to reach other regions in the coming days.

Firmware versions for the update include:

• Galaxy S23: S911BXXS7CXL2
• Galaxy S23 Plus: S916BXXS7CXL2
• Galaxy S23 Ultra: S918BXXS7CXL2

If the update notification hasn’t appeared on your device automatically, you can manually check for it by following these steps:
Settings > Software Update > Download and Install.
If the update still isn’t available, it might not have reached your region yet, so you may need to wait a little longer.
