Unlocked Galaxy S21, S21+, and S21 Ultras in the USA are currently receiving an update with firmware version G991U1UEU5DVL1, G996U1UEU5DVL1, and G998U1UEU5DVL1 respectively. The update includes the November 2022 security patch, even though the December patch is already available for Galaxy S21 models elsewhere in the world and for some carrier-locked variants in the country.
Thankfully, it seems the update isn't just about security enhancements. Unfortunately, we don't have the changelog at this time, so there's no telling what's new or changed. However, Samsung has hopefully fixed some bugs that may have slipped past it in the initial Android 13 release and some users will find their One UI 5.0 experience getting better after installing the latest update.
Speaking of installing updates, the procedure remains the same as usual. You can either wait for a notification about the update's availability to show up on its own, try a manual over-the-air download from the phone's Settings » Software update menu, or upgrade by downloading the latest firmware from our site and installing it on your S21, S21+, or S21 Ultra using a Windows PC.
