Samsung Galaxy S23 update changelog
As reported by SamMobile, the update for Samsung Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+, and Galaxy S23 Ultra with firmware version S91xBXXU2AWF1 is currently rolling out for handsets in Indonesia, Malaysia, Philippines, and Thailand. The update brings the June 2023 Android security patch and is said to add a new 2x zoom option in the camera app’s Portrait mode apart from the general bug fixes and One UI improvements.
The update is 2.2GB in size and purportedly addresses autofocus issues and makes changes to the Night mode feature. The Galaxy S23 series models are getting subtle improvements in haptics as well. The update is expected to include fixes for the camera blur issue that was acknowledged by the company earlier this month.
As per the report, the update should arrive automatically over the air to eligible Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+, and Galaxy S23 Ultra units. However, users in the above-mentioned regions can manually check for the update by heading to Settings > Software update > Download and Install. Users are advised to update their phones while they are connected to a strong Wi-Fi network and a charger. It is expected to arrive in more regions in the coming days.
