A many times agone, you presumably would n’t have anticipated Samsung to be at the van of Android updates. Moment, still, it’s nearly the bill child for speedy, regular, and long- term updates, both the yearly security bones as well as major interpretation upgrades. It’s still not perfect, of course, and there are still some kinks in the process to be ironed out. More burning, still, are the major show- stopping bugs in its rearmost One UI 4 release that may have eventually been addressed.
Haste Makes Waste
Samsung is no foreigner to perambulator updates, some of which may be attributed to rushing effects too much. Back in 2017, it had to repudiate its Android 7 Nougat update for the Galaxy S6 and S7 because of some crippling bugs. On the tackle side, its rush to use a new battery design was also criticized for the disastrous Galaxy Note 7 that exploded in people’s pockets This time around, it’s the One UI 4 update that has put the company under some heat. Indeed after two months of beta testing, the update that brought Android 12 to this time’s Samsung flagships ended up with a many bugs that got down. Effects got so bad for the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 that Samsung had to pull the update after just a many days of rolling it out.
Part of the problem was supposedly due to One UI 4 not playing well with Google Play services. It might not exactly be surprising considering how numerous changes Samsung makes to the core Android experience. Some bugs will ultimately pop up in major upgrades like these, and unfortunately, quite a many were n’t caught before they hit people’s phones.
Full Brume Ahead Again
Fortunately, Samsung’s rollout was limited to a many select requests, minimizing the damage it caused. In particular, foldable phones in South Korea were hit first before Samsung yanked the perambulator updates. Now it seems that effects have been ironed out, and Samsung is ready to begin again.

A post in Samsung’s South Korean forums says that the company banded with Google in stomping out the bugs, at least the bones related to Google Play comity. With that major blocker out of the way, Samsung has continued rolling out the update for the Galaxy S21 series, the Galaxy Z Fold 3, and the Galaxy Z Flip 3 across the globe. More conservative druggies, still, might be well- advised to stay for a many weeks before taking the plunge, and surely not without backing up their phones first.
