Usually, Samsung offers a new version of One UI for Galaxy smartphones first to new and high-end devices, such as Galaxy Z and Galaxy series, and then to older and more affordable models, including Galaxy A, Galaxy M, and Galaxy F lineups. Similarly, the brand offers the update first in its home country, and a few days later, starts rolling it out in other regions.
With One UI 8.5, however, the brand is taking things differently. The company is offering the new software to devices across various lineups and price segments, as well as in South Korea and other countries simultaneously. To that extent, the tech giant has now started rolling out the stable version of One UI 8.5 for the Galaxy A36 globally, with India and Turkey among the first to get it.
The update is 2,574.54MB in size and carries firmware A366BXXU9CZDD (via Tarun Vats).

I’m a computer science engineer living in Hyderabad, India, who has a keen interest in automobiles and consumer electronics. My journalism career kicked off in 2017 with MySmartPrice where I wrote news, features, buying guides, and explanatory articles about technology among other things, and reviewed many products, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, PC components, smartwatches, audio devices, wearables, and smart home products. Since then, I have worked for 91Mobiles, Apple, and Onsitego, before finally landing on SamMobile.
