    Latest Galaxy S21 update brings the June 2021 security patch

    Firmware

    Samsung is now very quick to release new security patches. We often see the company releasing next month's patch even before we roll into the new month. That's exactly what has happened today. The company is now rolling out the June 2021 security patch for the Galaxy S21 lineup.

    The rollout has only just started. This means that it's only available over-the-air in select countries for now. However, it won't be long before the latest Galaxy S21 update is out for all markets.

    Galaxy S21 lineup gets the June 2021 security patch

    Samsung is rolling out firmware version G991NKSU3AUE8, G996NKSU3AUE8, and G998NKSU3AUE8 for the Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+ and the Galaxy S21 Ultra respectively. The new firmware is currently out in South Korea only.

    The latest Galaxy S21 firmware update is currently rolling out over-the-air. The contents of next month's security patch haven't been detailed right now. We should expect that to happen in the first few months of June. That's also when Google will release information about what it has patched in this release.

    One should obviously not expect much in the way of new futures from this firmware update. Samsung's 2021 flagships are running the latest version of its One UI custom skin. They already have all of the latest software features that Samsung has to offer.

    Expect your Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+ or Galaxy S21 Ultra to get the latest patch in the coming days.
