We’ve spoken to Samsung about its plans for updating its foldable phones, including the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3.
Samsung’s most recent foldable phones – the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 – won’t have to wait long for the new update to One UI 4, according to a Samsung executive. Sally Hyesoon Jeong, Head of Framework R&D at Samsung, told TechRadar, “Last year, when One UI 3 was released, foldable users had to wait a little bit before they could enjoy the latest version. „We heard feedback, and they wanted to get their hands on One UI as soon as possible. So this time around, we tried our best to narrow the gap. “We brought greater efficiency to the software structure by bringing a modular structure to the underlying software architecture. Through that, we were able to bring One UI to foldable users earlier than before.” Jeong couldn’t share an official release date for the new software, but the One UI 4 update – which is based on Google’s Android 12 – is now rolling out to the Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21 Plus and Galaxy S21 Ultra.
