According to reports, the Samsung Galaxy Fold will receive a new update, as well as the May 2021 Android security patch. The update is expected to be released in France first, with no word on when it will be released in other regions. The update improves both the phone’s camera and Samsung’s fast share feature. In October 2019, Samsung launched the Galaxy Fold in India, running Android 9 Pie. It was later updated to Android 10 in 2020, and then to the Android 11-based One UI 3.0 in 2021.
Samsung Galaxy Fold Update History
The Samsung Galaxy Fold update was first reported by SamMobile. According to reports, Samsung has improved the camera functions of the foldable smartphone. It was not immediately obvious that the update includes camera features from the S21 Series Galaxy, such as the ability to use the ultra-wide camera in Pro and Pro video modes. According to the update, Samsung has also improved the Quick Share feature, which is used to transfer data between Galaxy compatible devices.
The new Samsung Galaxy Fold update is known to include F900FXXU5EUD7 and is now available in France. The rest of the world should be updated as soon as possible. By going to Settings > Software Update > Download and Install, you can manually check if your device has received the update. While the update is being installed, the phone should be connected to and charged to maintain a stable Wi-Fi network.
