Samsung has officially removed the Galaxy Fold from the software support list, four years after this product launched.
The Galaxy Fold was launched in 2019, promising three Android updates and four years of security updates. At this point, this is one of the best software policies of a smartphone manufacturer. Now, Samsung has changed its policy to four Android versions and five years of security updates for all high-end smartphones, starting with the Galaxy S21 series, along with many mid-range and low-cost Galaxy devices. recently released.
While most other Samsung devices are about to receive a new security update, the Galaxy Fold is unfortunately not on the list. The phone last received its biannual update a while ago. This marks the end of the device's software support.
Galaxy Fold is Samsung's first folding screen phone, so it will be a bit of a shame if this device is no longer on the regular software update list. Although users can continue to use this product, in the future it will no longer be protected against threats from software attacks.
If you want to upgrade to a new Galaxy Z device, Samsung still has a return program for any product. For example, you can choose Galaxy Z Fold 4 or Fold 5 with outstanding improvements. Importantly, the software support period of these phone models is very long. They are expected to be updated to One UI 6.0 based on Android 14 in the near future.
