A bunch of mid-range Galaxy A series phones are getting Samsung‘s June update. The company is pushing the latest security patch to the Galaxy A32, Galaxy A32 5G, Galaxy A31, and Galaxy A41. It has previously updated dozens of other models to the June SMR (Security Maintenance Release), which patches more than 60 vulnerabilities.
The June update for the Galaxy A32 is rolling out widely in Europe, Asia, Africa, and Latin America. Users in the former three markets are getting the new SMR with the firmware build number A325FXXU5DWE3. The build number in Latin America is A325MUBU5DWF1. The changelog remains the same everywhere, though. Samsung says the device is getting some system stability and reliability improvements along with this month’s security fixes.
Unlike its 4G sibling, the Galaxy A32 5G isn’t getting the June update widely yet. The latest SMR for this phone is available in a handful of Latin American countries, including Brazil, Chile, Colombia, and the Dominican Republic. For users in Chile, the new firmware build number is A326BXXS6CWF3, but that for users in the remaining countries is A326BXXS6CWF2. This phone isn’t picking up additional goodies anywhere.
The rollout for the Galaxy A31 and Galaxy A41 is even more limited. As of this writing, Samsung has released the June SMR for the two 2020 mid-range phones only in Kazakhstan. The update comes with build numbers A315FXXS3DWF1 and A415FXXS4DWF1 (via SamMobile). Neither model is getting anything else apart from the latest security fixes. A wider rollout of the June update for these phones should follow in the coming days.
Samsung’s June update for Galaxy devices fixes over 60 security issues
The June SMR for Galaxy devices is a pretty big one. This month’s security release contains fixes for more than 60 vulnerabilities. The vast majority of those (50) are Android OS issues, at least three of which were classified as critical flaws by Google. The remaining issues are Galax-specific flaws patched by Samsung.
As usual, not every Galaxy device is affected by all 60 of these security flaws. But every model is vulnerable to a few of those. You should update your phone to the latest security patch as soon as possible to stay clear of these vulnerabilities. If you’re using a Samsung smartphone, you can navigate to Settings > Software update > Download and install on your phone to check for updates manually. You may also get a notification once the latest update reaches your Galaxy device.
