One UI 9 (Android 17) Update: Which Samsung Galaxy Phones Have Got It and Which Are Next

One UI 9 is Samsung's new software for Galaxy phones, and it is based on Android 17. It reached the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Z Flip 8 first, and the stable update has since started on older flagships. Samsung has not published one official list of every eligible phone, so the lists below come from reports and are marked that way.

Phones that have got One UI 9

• Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Flip 8: launched with One UI 9 in July, with the rollout starting in August.
• Galaxy S26 series: Samsung started the rollout for these phones first among the older flagships, and it has begun in India.
• Galaxy S25 series (including S25 Edge and S25 FE): reports say the stable update has started, first in South Korea and then in other regions. Users in India have reported seeing it from early October. Dates differ between reports.

Phones reported to be getting it or expected next

These come from reports and fan-site lists, not from Samsung's official list.

• Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7
• Galaxy S24 series
• Galaxy S23 series: reports say the stable update is rolling out globally.
• Galaxy A56 and A36: reports say the stable update is reaching more regions.
• Galaxy A57
• Other Galaxy A and M models, and tablets: some are on the beta, and several reports expect them toward the end of 2026.

Phones that will not get One UI 9

• Galaxy S22 series
• Galaxy S21 FE
• Galaxy Z Fold 4

These have reached the end of Samsung's major Android update promise. They should still get security patches for a while, depending on the model.

How to check for the update

Go to Settings → Software update → Download and install. The rollout is in phases, so it can reach your phone days or weeks after other users, and it differs by country and carrier. The download is large, reportedly several gigabytes, so use Wi-Fi, back up your data and keep the battery above 50%.

Should you update right away?

New versions can bring bugs. If your phone is your only device and you depend on it, you can wait a week or two and read user reports first. If you want the new features early, update on Wi-Fi and with a backup.
