Samsung Galaxy S23 smartphones get new security update in Europe with improved Auto Lock feature
Samsung is updating its devices with the latest security patch from December and the Galaxy S23 series of smartphones has become even safer and more secure with this update.
Here's What We Know
Samsung has released the update for both the Galaxy S23 flagships and the Galaxy S23 FE model. The update, at the moment, is rolling out in Europe and will soon be available in other regions.
The new firmware not only contains the latest security update for December 2024, but also an improved version of Samsung's Auto Lock feature, available at least for models without the FE designation.
