Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4, Z Fold 4, Galaxy S22 Series, plus receiving UI 5.1 update: reports

Samsung’s One UI 5.1 software update was unveiled earlier this month at the first Galaxy Unpacked event of the year which saw the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series. The update does not bring major UI changes from the One UI 5.0 update. However, it includes the Expert RAW function, which allows users to take high quality images. The South Korean tech giant has reportedly started rolling out the One UI 5.1 update for its other flagship Galaxy models. The foldable Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 are among the first Samsung handsets to get this update.

According to a report from GSMArena, the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4, as well as the Galaxy S22 series have started receiving the One UI 5.1 update based on Android 13.

Samsung previously revealed that the Galaxy S23 will boot One UI 5.1 out of the box.

Meanwhile, SamMobile reports that the older Galaxy S21 and Galaxy S20 lineups have also started receiving the One UI 5.1 update. Galaxy S20 series users in Europe would receive the update with firmware version G98xxXXUFHWAK. The report claims that this might be the last Android version update for the Galaxy S20 handsets.

Samsung previously revealed that One UI 5.1 brings updated camera capabilities. Users can change the hues using the “Effects” button while taking selfies. The new Expert RAW feature allows users to take high quality images from the camera app’s Advanced menu. The Notes app can now be used to collaborate with other users. Additionally, users can invite others to collaborate on shared albums, notes and calendars, Samsung says.

DeX mode has been refined in One UI 5.1 to make multitasking easier. Samsung says users can control their Galaxy smartphones and tablets with the same mouse used to control a Samsung Galaxy Book – Apple offers a similar universal control feature on compatible devices.
