Samsung has released a new software update for the Galaxy Z Flip 5G—yes, the 2020-launched model. If you still have that phone, don't get your hopes too high, as the update doesn't bring a newer version of Android or One UI. It is just a security update.

Galaxy Z Flip 5G gets April 2024 update in the USA

The new software update is now available for the carrier-locked and factory-unlocked variants of the Galaxy Z Flip 5G in the USA. The update for the carrier-locked version comes bearing firmware version F707USQS7IXC1 and is available on Sprint's network in the country. The factory-unlocked version of the phone is getting updated with firmware version F707U1UES7IXC1. It, too, is getting the update on Sprint's network.

The new update brings the April 2024 security patch that fixes a few dozen security vulnerabilities. It doesn't bring new features, performance improvements, or stability enhancements.

If you have a Galaxy Z Flip 5G and live in the US, you can install the new update on your foldable phone. To do that, navigate to Settings » Software update, and tap Download and install. You can also download the new firmware file from our firmware database and flash it manually. For the manual process, you would need a computer running Windows OS and the Odin tool.
