It seems that Samsung is the company that is hurrying with Android 13 and its own One UI update. The company published a beta version of this software for the Galaxy S22 and today we can announce that the Galaxy S21 enjoy it. The trio of mobiles launched in 2021 can now update to Android 13 and One UI 5.0 officially, although under a beta test version. We tell you everything you need to know!
While other companies have not taken any steps, Samsung is working to release the first stable version in October. It will reach the Galaxy S22 in the first instance and then the rest of the catalog progressively.
The Galaxy S21 already enjoy Android 13 and One UI 5
If you have a Galaxy S21, Galaxy S21+ or Galaxy S21 Ultra don’t worry, Samsung hasn’t forgotten about you. The company has worked in recent weeks to be able to grant these models a beta with which to test the stability of the system.
This is very good news for users of these smartphones, as it means that they will be able to update “soon”. That Samsung takes into account last year’s phones at such an early stage means that the general update phase is positive.
Of course, you should not forget that it is a beta , and that it is not available worldwide. Despite not being able to update, it is still very good news, since all mobiles that enter the beta phases will receive the stable update sooner than expected.
How to update your Galaxy S21 to Android 13
The process is simple, but there is bad news for you. If you are reading us from Spain or Latin America , at the moment, you cannot update. Samsung has released the beta version in the UK and South Korea . Only in these regions can users enter Samsung Members and sign up to receive the OTA.
The good news is that Samsung will probably expand this beta to more countries as the weeks go by. We recommend visiting the Samsung Members app every few days, as you may see the banner for the beta update available in your country.
When will Android 13 stable arrive at Samsung?
The stable and official version still needs work to be released. Some leaks say that Samsung is working to launch it in mid-October on the Galaxy S22. From there, the rest of the devices will update little by little .
For example, the Galaxy S21 could go behind the S22 thanks to this beta that is already available. Other high-end folding models released in 2022 and 2021 will also be updated before the end of the year. And you, when do you think you will receive your Samsung Android 13 mobile ?
