March 2023 security update is spreading to the Galaxy S21 FE

Firmware

The March 2023 security patch is landing on more phones, among which is the Galaxy S21 FE. The last (for now) Fan Edition smartphone is getting the March 2023 security update in India.

The update weighs around 220MB and doesn't bring anything else besides the March 2023 security patch. Galaxy S21 FE users in India can identify this update by firmware version G990EXXS4EWC2.

The March 2023 security patch is chock-full of fixes and even addresses some serious concerns related to the Exynos 850, Exynos 1280, and Exynos 2200 chipsets. Or, more specifically, the modems these SoCs use. However, these issues shouldn't concern the Galaxy S21 FE, which is powered by the Exynos 2100 or Snapdragon 888 SoC.

Galaxy S21 FE users can download the latest firmware with the March 2023 security patch included upon receiving the notification on their devices. Alternatively, they can try to trigger the update manually by accessing the Settings app, navigating to “Software update,” and tapping “Download and install.”

A third method for fans of manual updates via a Windows PC is also possible but requires official Samsung firmware files. You can download them from the firmware section on our website once they are available.

In his free time, he enjoys watching shows, documentaries, and stand-up comedy; listening to music, taking walks, and occasionally playing old(er) video games.
