Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra: Waiting for the big software update
When Samsung introduced the Galaxy S24 series, they made a big promise. They said they would support the phones with updates for 7 years. This was supposed to be a game-changer for smartphone owners. But now, more than a year later, the owners of the Galaxy S24 Ultra are still waiting for that first big software update.
The promise was exciting. Everybody thought they’d get new features and security fixes regularly. But the reality has been different. While other phone companies, like Google, have already updated their latest models, Samsung seems to be lagging. For instance, Google’s Pixel 8, which also promised 7 years of support, got its Android 15 update months ago.
This delay is not just annoying; it’s a bit worrying. Security updates are crucial for keeping phones safe. Without them, you start to wonder if Samsung will really keep its promises.
Many Galaxy S24 Ultra users are now talking about this online. They’re sharing their frustrations on social media and tech forums, asking when they’ll see the update. This has affected how people feel about Samsung, especially when it comes to how well they support their devices after you buy them.
Promising 7 years of updates was a big deal, but not delivering even the first major update after over a year is a letdown. It’s not just about the updates; it’s about trusting the brand. Samsung is known for making cool gadgets, but they need to show they care for their customers too.
To keep leading in the smartphone world, Samsung needs to match its great hardware with equally impressive software support. If they don’t, their promises might feel empty to many.
Current Update Status for Samsung Galaxy S24:
Samsung has rolled out three beta versions of One UI for the Galaxy S24 in some areas. There’s chatter about a fourth beta coming out next week. However, there’s still no confirmed date for when the final, stable version will be available.
