One UI 5 x December 2022

In November, Samsung updated over three dozen Galaxy models to the latest Android 13-based One UI 5.0 software. Due to this rapid OS distribution, the company hasn’t released the most up-to-date Android patch.

The major One UI 5 firmware comes with a number of improvements and system optimization so you can get the most out of your Galaxy. However, the new OS update package carries plenty of new features, mentioned here.

As of now, all eligible flagship Galaxies are running the Android 13, while select mid-range and budget devices are also getting their One UI 5 upgrade in various phases as per regional and carrier availability. Roadmap
