Another Sunday, another weekly roundup. This week also focused on One UI 8.5, with Samsung expanding the stable rollout to older flagship and foldable Galaxy devices. The company also started bringing the update to midrange phones and tablets, while a few devices saw their rollout expand globally. Alongside that, Samsung dropped the May 2026 security update for many users across different markets, and last month’s April 2026 patch continued reaching a few more models as well. Last updated on May 24.

Towards the end of the week, the Galaxy Tab S11 series and Galaxy Tab S10 FE series also joined the rollout, although the update is currently limited to Korea.
