Earlier this month, Samsung updated its latest Galaxy Note series devices with the most up-to-date security patch. Now, the Galaxy Note 20 flagships locked on Verizon cellular started grabbing the July 2021 security patch in the US via software update.

Other than the security improvements, the update package also includes system performance enhancements for a better overall user experience. However, it’s a gradual rollout, it may take some time to reach every Galaxy Note 20 unit in the country.

Last month, Google said that Samsung will fix the Android Auto-related issue with software updates in the future so we can expect that the July 2021 update fixes the error that was emerged last month. However, the new OTA improves the performance of all the stock applications.
