Samsung is working hard to roll out the Android 15-based One UI 7 to eligible devices. While the Galaxy S25 runs out of the box, it recently received the February 2025 update. Meanwhile, the company is still deploying the January 2025 security update to its Galaxy devices, and the Galaxy A33 5G is the latest to join this party.

The update has already been rolled out for flagship smartphones like the Galaxy S, Z series, and some Galaxy A series phones. The South Korean giant has now started rolling it out to its mid-range models.

Samsung Galaxy A33 5G is getting the new January 2025 security update with One UI A336BXXSCEXL1 version. The update does not make any major changes to the device. However, Galaxy phone holders will get to see performance optimization.

Installing January 2025 update on your Galaxy A33 phone will enable seamless operation of the device. Users can also get rid of unknown bugs lurking in the core system. The update is currently live in Europe and the company will expand it soon. As always, the update is rolling in batches and may take time to cover all the compatible units.

You can also try the manual installation. To do so, visit the Settings app and tap on Software Updates > Download and install. Now follow the on-screen steps. Don’t forget to keep sufficient storage and battery levels in your Galaxy phone.

January 2025 security update

Samsung has eliminated more than 50 vulnerabilities with the January 2025 security patch to improve security and stability. This figure includes 5 critical and 24 high-level CVEs, which are related to system modules and settings.

Apart from these vulnerabilities, the company has resolved 22 SVEs Samsung-specific problems that are generally related to Sound Picker, Samsung Messages, Notification Manager, and Bootloader. Something more worthy is the “affected software versions” section.
