Samsung went all in with One UI 8.5 updates today. The company began the global rollout of the stable One UI 8.5 update for the Galaxy S24 series. It also began first One UI 8.5 releases in Korea for devices like the Galaxy S23 series, Galaxy A56 and Galaxy Z Flip 5. Now, Samsung has also started the global One UI 8.5 rollout for the Galaxy S24 FE, Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. This comes after initially releasing the update in South Korea last week.

Galaxy S24 FE, Z Fold 6 and Flip 6 get One UI 8.5 in more regions

Starting with the Galaxy S24 FE, the Fan Edition smartphone is now receiving the stable One UI 8.5 update for the global “B” variant. The rollout follows the standard Galaxy S24 lineup, which picked up the update earlier today. Samsung has already started pushing the release in regions like India, Europe, Turkey and several Southeast Asian markets. The update carries build number S721BXXUBDZDP. It weighs around 4.2GB for non-beta users.

Samsung has also started rolling out stable One UI 8.5 for its 2024 foldables — the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. The update is now live in India, several European countries and a few additional regions. The Z Fold 6 carries build number F956BXXU3DZDP, while the Z Flip 6 comes with firmware version F741BXXU3DZDP. The company should expand the rollout to more countries very soon.

If you own a Galaxy S24 FE, Z Fold 6 or Flip 6, you can check for the stable One UI 8.5 update by going to Settings > Software update > Download and install. Once the package finishes downloading, tap Install now to begin the installation.

At this point, stable One UI 8.5 is available for all Samsung flagship, foldable and Fan Edition (FE) devices launched until 2023. Samsung has also started expanding the rollout to midrange devices by releasing the update for the Galaxy A56 and Galaxy A36 in Korea earlier today. More budget models are expected to follow soon. Based on previous rollout timelines, the Korean giant could complete the One UI 8.5 rollout for most eligible devices by the end of July if it maintains the current pace.
