Galaxy Z Fold 3 gets its last security update before the Z Fold 4 arrives

Firmware
By 

Last updated: August 3rd, 2022 at 14:01 UTC+02:00

After the Galaxy Z Flip 3, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 has become the latest foldable Samsung phone to receive the August 2022 security patch. The company is now rolling out a new OTA firmware update for the Galaxy Z Fold 3 carrying model number SM-F926B.

Galaxy Z Fold 3 customers can identify the new update by firmware version F926BXXU1CVG8. The update weighs almost 440MB with the August 2022 security patch included.

Aside from better security, the official changelog also mentions the usual performance improvements and new or enhanced features. Furthermore, a handful of Samsung apps — including Galaxy Wearable, Global Goals, PENUP, Samsung Health, Samsung Internet, SmartThings, and more — may also receive new updates along with this latest firmware version.

As usual, the update should be accompanied by a notification, but if it's missing, Galaxy Z Fold 3 customers can try to trigger the OTA update by opening the Settings app on their phones, accessing “Software update” and tapping “Download and install.” Once available, official firmware files will also be available for download from our website.

This might be one of the last monthly security patches Samsung has in store for the Galaxy Z Fold 3 before the device receives One UI 4.1.1. The latter will debut with the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 at Unpacked on August 10.
