Samsung has started pushing One UI 2.1 for Android 10, to more devices in the past few days. The update brings with it several improvements as well as safety and stability upgrades.

The security of your device has been improved

Over the course of this year, Samsung has been steadily steering toward a more customer-friendly business approach. Instead of leaving users high and dry within a year of ownership, the company seems eager to support devices for longer durations. This is evident by its announcement to support a range of smartphones for at least 3 major OS updates.

The supported devices range from lower mid-range phones to flagship devices. It’s a mixed list, which means that Samsung isn’t playing ‘favorites’ here. Instead, it is doing the noble thing by trying to accommodate as many smartphones as possible.
