Carrier-based and unlocked models of the Galaxy Z Fold 3 are yet to get the November security patch, though it could arrive over the coming weeks. The update continues Samsung’s long streak of rolling out monthly security updates for its devices. Samsung began rolling out the November security patch for the Galaxy S20 series last week. Devices like the Galaxy S20+ and the Galaxy S20 Ultra were also part of this update. Galaxy device owners are eagerly waiting for Samsung’s One UI 4 update. The company is on course to roll out the update for some phones before the end of the year. In addition to the bevy of One UI-specific changes, the update will also introduce Android 12. Samsung announced the first One UI 4 beta for the Galaxy S21 a few weeks ago. Since then, the company has also launched betas for the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the Z Flip 3. The beta software is accessible via the Samsung Members app within the “Benefits” section. Devices like the Galaxy S21 and the Galaxy Z Flip 3/Z Fold 3 will receive the Android 12 update before the end of the year. However, other devices, including the Galaxy S20 lineup, will likely have to wait a bit longer. Despite this, Samsung is one of the quickest to churn out software updates for its devices, rivaled only by Google.
