Last updated: April 7th, 2023 at 08:45 UTC+02:00

Samsung started rolling out the April 2023 security update last week, and the Galaxy S23 series was the first to get it. Since then, some high-end and mid-range phones have started getting the new security update. Today, the Galaxy A04e has started getting the April 2023 security update, and surprisingly, it has received this update faster than many high-end and mid-range Galaxy phones.

The latest software update for the Galaxy A04e comes with firmware version A042FXXS2CWC3. It brings the April 2023 security patch that fixes over 60 security and privacy flaws, and some of them were highly critical. The update might also include other bug fixes and device stability improvements. Don't expect the new software to bring any new major improvements or features.

How to install Galaxy A04e's April 2023 security update?

If you have a Galaxy A04e, you can download the new update by heading over to Settings » Software update and clicking Download and install. Alternatively, you can download the newest firmware from our firmware database and flash it manually using a Windows PC and the Odin tool.

Samsung launched the Galaxy A04e six months ago with Android 12-based One UI 4.1 Core onboard. The smartphone received the Android 13-based One UI 5.0 update in February 2023 and the One UI 5.1 update in late March 2023. It will get one more Android OS update in the future.
