Samsung continues to roll out updates focused on enhancing user security. The South Korean brand has recently made a patch, initially launched last week in a limited number of countries for a budget-friendly model, available worldwide. So, which model received this new update? Here are the details!
Galaxy S21 FE Receives the October 2024 Update
The latest model to receive the October 2024 update is the Galaxy S21 FE. With build numbers G990BXXSAGXJ1 and G990B2XXS9GXJ1, the update resolves over 42 security vulnerabilities and aims to enhance system stability.
