Samsung continues to roll out the June 2024 security update to more devices, with several new updates hitting today. As spotted by SamMobile, not only has the Galaxy S21 security update started rolling out in several countries, but a few US-specific Galaxy variants are also receiving the update.

Starting with the Galaxy S21, the update is listed as firmware version G99xBXXSBGXEC and is reaching several countries in Asia, including Russia, Ukraine, Vietnam, Thailand, and Indonesia, among others. Additionally, the update will soon arrive in Europe’s Caucasus region. For those in the United States, the carrier-locked versions of the Galaxy S21 are receiving updates starting today under the firmware version G99xUSQSBGXF1. Meanwhile, those with unlocked S21 units in the US will get a different firmware model, listed as G99xU1UESBGXF1.

While updates for many Fold and Flip models were already available, SamMobile also reports the US carrier-locked Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3 have now joined the fun. Furthermore, while the S23 FE carrier-locked models first saw the patch on June 11, the update has now begun rolling out for the unlocked variants too.

The June 2024 patch includes more than 50 fixes for security issues, including one fix that is listed as “critical” for “some Android 12, 13 devices.” As always, we recommend grabbing these patches as soon as they become available for your device.
