These updates are unlikely to offer any new features or changes other than enhanced security. The January 2019 patch fixes three critical vulnerabilities in Android, along with a slew of high-risk vulnerabilities. It also fixes four vulnerabilities that affect Samsung’s software, including one that can interrupt data transfer on a Wi-Fi connection. As we have said before, this is one of the smallest security updates we have seen in some time when it comes to the number of critical vulnerabilities that have been plugged.
