Expectedly, the update covers the unlocked Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+, and the Galaxy S21 Ultra. SamMobile reports that the update bears the firmware version G99xU1UEU4BUK7. In addition to all the Android 12/One UI 4 related features, this update also includes the November 2021 security patch. Owners of unlocked Galaxy S21 variants in the US can pull the Android 12 update manually via Settings – Software update. Despite the relative delay in sending the update to unlocked variants of its early 2021 flagship, Samsung is still miles ahead of rival offerings in terms of update rollout....

In effect, you can easily miss out on a speed trap unless you keep checking your phone’s screen for it, which isn’t the safest practice while driving. Worse yet, Waze does send the alerts sometimes, while sometimes it doesn’t. This inconsistency means you cannot rely on it, as you never know whether the feature is working or not....

Just how the most interesting fashion trends are those that flip the script on existing rules, going blonder for fall has got us feeling a giddy kind of way. That gradual fade-to-black (or, you know, dark brown) that we usually do come the colder months?
