More on Galaxy S25 Ultra
Samsung recently shared its revised software update plan for July 2025. Through this updated plan, Samsung has confirmed that three Galaxy devices, the Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Galaxy F52 5G, and Galaxy A22 5G are no longer eligible for software updates.
Now, Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Galaxy F52 5G, and Galaxy A22 5G have been removed from the Biannual plan in July 2025. It means that Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Galaxy F52 5G, and Galaxy A22 5G devices will no longer receive software updates as they have completed their update cycle.
The Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Galaxy F52 5G, and Galaxy A22 5G were released in 2021. Since then, these three Galaxy devices have received three major Android updates, along with regular security patches. Now, after several years of support, Samsung is officially ending updates for these Galaxy devices.
So, what does this mean for these phone and tablet users? First, don’t worry, because your tablet will still work. Even though the Korean tech giant will no longer send out new Android versions or monthly security updates, your device will still receive Google Play system updates. These updates help keep your Galaxy device secure and let you continue using important apps like banking, social media, and video streaming.
If you want the newest features and latest Android updates, you might want to upgrade to a newer Galaxy phone and tablet. You can check tablets from the Galaxy Tab A10 series, the Tab S9 series, or the Galaxy A56 5G. These new Galaxy devices offer better performance, new features, and longer support.
However, if your current devices are working well and you’re happy with them, there’s no need to upgrade right away. The Galaxy Tab S7 FE, Galaxy F52 5G, and Galaxy A22 5G can still handle basic tasks like browsing the web, watching videos, or using social media.
Samsung has announced the July 2025 security patch for its Galaxy devices on the first Monday of the month. However, Samsung fans are still waiting for the latest security update apart from the One UI 8 stable update.
Samsung July 2025 security patch

Samsung has started testing Android 16-based One UI 8 on the Galaxy Z Fold 5. This big result shows that the Korean tech giant is considering the 2023 foldable, which could also be included in the Open Beta program this year.
After Galaxy S and A series devices, Samsung’s Android 16 optimization for Galaxy devices is in full swing, with foldable models not being added to the testing zone.
A reliable tipster, @Tarunvats has spotted a new One UI 8 build for the Galaxy Z Fold 5 on the testing platform. The testing build, F946BXXU5FYG2, hints that Samsung is actively working on One UI 8 for the Galaxy Z Fold 5.
Notably, last month, a carrier-locked variant (SM-F946U) of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 for the US was spotted on Geekbench running Samsung’s Android 16-based One UI 8.0.
The One UI 8 update will bring meaningful changes to the UI. The company is also working on redesigning apps and core functionality to further improve the appearance and foundation laid by the Android 15-based One UI 7 update.
