Samsung is rolling out a new software update for the Galaxy S22 series, less than a month after the May 2022 security patch was prematurely brought in. The new update has been rolled out in over a dozen countries for models powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 processor, and we expect it to be rolled out to models powered by Exynos in the near future.
While the previous update only introduced security improvements, the latest firmware brings improvements to the “overall stability of functions,” according to the changelog. This suggests that Samsung has fixed some bugs and oddities that are still part of the Galaxy S22 user experience for many customers, but sadly, in typical Samsung fashion, the company isn’t going into much detail. .
The update comes with firmware version S90xEXXU2AVE4 and weighs around 350MB or so, depending on which of the three Galaxy S22 models you’re using. Again, this is only available for the Snapdragon model at the moment, but users of the Exynos model should soon see it on their devices as well.
You can download the update over the air from the phone’s Settings » Software Update menu; It is also possible to upgrade to the latest firmware by grabbing the relevant file for your country from our archives. The rollout will eventually expand to more and more countries, so be sure to check again after some time if the update isn’t already available in your country.
