Samsung's foldable flagships from 2021 are getting a new update. The update is rolling out in some South American markets and brings the October 2024 Android and One UI security patch to the
Galaxy Z Fold 3 and
Galaxy Z Flip 3.
To download the latest update on your Galaxy Z Fold 3 or Flip 3, navigate to its
Settings » Software update*menu and hit*
Download and install. Alternatively, download the latest firmware from our archives (
Galaxy Z Fold 3 |
Flip 3) and install it on the phone over a wired USB connection on a Windows computer.
With the October patch, Galaxy smartphones and tablets get protection from 30 vulnerabilities that affect all Android devices and
12 that pose a risk to Samsung devices. Since the Galaxy Z Fold and Galaxy Z Flip lineup use Snapdragon chips in all markets, they aren't getting a fix for a high-risk issue discovered in Samsung's in-house chipsets.
No other changes are included in the latest Fold 3 and Flip 3 update. Nothing surprising here, as the two foldables
got the One UI 6.1.1 a couple of weeks ago and One UI 7.0
isn't coming until 2025. Samsung will launch a One UI 7.0 beta program
later this year, but there's no guarantee it will be available on the Fold 3 and Flip 3.
While One UI 7.0 is a few months away, we got some hands-on time with a test build running on a Galaxy S24 Ultra at
Samsung's developer conference. Check it out in the video below.
