    The Galaxy Tab S5e is the latest Samsung tablet to get the August 2021 security update. Two weeks ago, the company had released the latest security patch to the Galaxy Tab S6. Strangely, other tablets from the South Korean firm are yet to receive this security update.

    Samsung has started the rollout of the new security patch to the Galaxy Tab S5e with South Korea. The update carries firmware version T725NKOS2DUH2 and includes the August 2021 security patch. As per Samsung's documentation, the latest update should fix 40 vulnerabilities related to privacy and security. No new features or user-facing changes are expected to be a part of this update.

    If you are a Galaxy Tab S5e user in South Korea, you can check for this update by navigating to Settings » Software update and tapping on Download and install. You can also download the latest firmware file from our firmware database and flash it manually using a Windows computer. The update could be released in more markets over the next few days.

    Samsung had launched the Galaxy Tab S5e in April 2019 with Android 9 Pie-based One UI. Last year, the tablet received the Android 10-based One UI 2 update. Earlier this year, the Galaxy Tab S5e received the Android 11-based One UI 3 update.
