Samsung is maintaining its momentum with security patches for compatible models as it counts down to the stable release of One UI 7. The South Korean brand has recently rolled out the December 2024 update for three of its smartphones. Here are the details!
December 2024 Patch Released for Galaxy S21 Series
The latest models to receive the December 2024 update are the Galaxy S21, S21 Plus, and S21 Ultra. The new patch arrives with the G99xUSQSEGXK3 build number and is currently rolling out to US variants first. Reports suggest that users in other regions will also receive the update in the coming days.
The December 2024 update for the Galaxy S21 series fixes over 45 security vulnerabilities and enhances overall system stability. While the exact size of the update is unknown, it is expected to be around 400 MB on average.
If you haven’t received the update notification automatically, you can manually check for it by navigating to:
Settings > Software Update > Download and Install.
If the update still doesn’t appear, it may not have reached your region yet, so you might need to wait a little longer.
