Quite a few Samsung flagship phones are getting the May 2020 security update extremely early in the month. Originally, Samsung put the update out for the Samsung Galaxy S20 series, but it followed up shortly after with updates for the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and Samsung Galaxy Fold.
According to a report from XDA-Developers, the Samsung Galaxy software update is called software version N97xFXXS4CTD1. Compared to the last batch of updates, this one is quite small at around 170MB. This means it shouldn’t take too long for most users to download it to their devices and start enjoying an increased level of security.
