Samsung Galaxy S24 Receives Update with March Security Patch and More
The
Samsung Galaxy S24 series
is receiving its second software update, bringing the latest March 2024
security patch to users. This update follows the initial firmware release in
February that focused on

and
display adjustments.
Early rollout for Europe with March Security Patch:
The update, currently available in Canada, Germany, Italy, and other European
regions, carries the build number AXBG. Here's a breakdown of the software
build numbers for each Galaxy S24 model:

- Galaxy S24 Ultra: S928USQS1AXBG
While Samsung hasn't provided detailed information on specific changes, the
highlight remains the inclusion of the March security patch. This update

Maintaining the Update Lead:
Samsung has a reputation for being among the first smartphone manufacturers to
release monthly security updates. While the February update arrived slightly
later than usual for flagship Galaxy devices, Samsung is back on track with
the March update, releasing it even before Google.
Other Galaxy phones, like the Galaxy S23 and Z Fold 5, are expected to receive
the March patch later in March. This coincides with the expected rollout of
the One UI 6.1 update, featuring new Galaxy AI capabilities, planned for late
March.
How to Check for the Update:
Galaxy S24 users can check for the update by navigating to
Settings > Software update > Download and install. Carrier-locked
devices might experience a slight delay, but unlocked models worldwide should
receive the update within the next few days.
This update ensures your Galaxy S24 remains secure and protected against the
latest threats. If you haven't received it yet, keep checking your software
update settings for the notification.
