Samsung has done a great job with the Android 12 rollout and we expect the same for the Android 13 based One UI 5 update. Although Samsung is taking time to release stable update, it won’t take time to deliver updates after that. So if you have mid range and entry level device which is eligible for Android 13 can expect the update in a few months. For Galaxy S21 series users, Samsung has released the third beta of One UI 5 in South Korea, the UK, and the US. Soon it will be available in other regions also in a few days. Galaxy S21 One UI 5 Beta 3 comes with software version ZVJ3 and build number G998BXXU5ZVJ3 at least in the UK. The update weighs slightly more than 1GB. Talking about changes and new features, this update brings the latest October 2022 Android security patch to the device.
