After this, Samsung should gradually expand the rollout to tablets and midrange devices. Budget M and F series offerings could likely start seeing the update around late June in most regions.

While the exact rollout timeline is still unclear, Samsung usually takes around three to four months to complete major software rollouts. If everything goes according to plan, the company could finish the One UI 8.5 rollout for most eligible devices before July. 

That said, we will continue updating this tracker regularly, so feel free to check back anytime. If we missed your region, you can also reach out to @Mohammed_K_2010 on X and let us know.
