The software for Samsung’s Galaxy smartphones is being updated to One UI 7, which includes Android 15. For users in the U.S., this has now reached Samsung Galaxy S23 and Galaxy Tab S10 devices — sooner than was expected.
The rollout has taken a long time, and it’s been staggered across different models. The latest flagship, the Galaxy S25 series, has had the software since release in January, with last year’s Galaxy S24 phones next. The Galaxy S23 release was expected to come in May for all users apart from those in Korea, but here it is, having landed for U.S. users in the last few hours, as reported by SamMobile.
Now, it’s the turn of the S23 and a tablet, the Galaxy Tab S10. Different countries are seeing the deployment at different times, with the U.S. a few days later than Korea, for instance.
For the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+ and Galaxy S23 Ultra, smartphones in Samsung’s home country of South Korea started receiving the update on April 24, and U.S. users saw it arrive just a day later, Friday, April 25.
According to 9to5Google, initially this was restricted to phones sold through carriers such as US Cellular and Xfinity Mobile, with unlocked phones having to wait longer.
There’s one S23 model which isn’t getting the update yet, and that’s the Samsung Galaxy S23 FE, which is still expected to see it in May.
For tablets, the Galaxy Tab S10 update was released in South Korea first, and is now available in Europe and the U.S. The same now applies to Galaxy Tab S10+ and Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra users in the U.S.
Here’s how to get the update if you haven’t seen a notification appear on your home screen: open the Settings app on the phone or tablet, choose Software Update and then Download and Install on your device.
