    The latest software update for the Galaxy Z Fold 2 comes with firmware version F916USQS2JWE4, and it is available on Sprint and T-Mobile networks in the US. The update includes the May 2023 security patch that fixes 72 security flaws found in Galaxy smartphones and tablets. It doesn't bring any new features to the foldable smartphone.
