The Samsung Galaxy S9, S9 Plus and Note 9 receive One UI 2.5 updates in another region

One UI 2.5 has reached yet more versions of Samsung's former flagships. The OS update will be the end of the road for handsets before the Galaxy S10 series, even if it is only update 2.5 for those that Samsung released in 2018. Nonetheless, Samsung has now committed to providing three years of software updates to its newer devices, which is good news. The Galaxy Note 9 and Galaxy S9 series should receive another year of security patch updates.

Unlocked versions of the Galaxy Note 9 started receiving One UI 2.5 last month, albeit in Germany. Samsung then began updating the Galaxy S9 and Galaxy S9 Plus shortly afterwards, again starting in Germany. Apparently, One UI 2.5 has not reached unlocked versions, though. In fact, German owners of the Galaxy Note 9 should now be seeing an update that contains the November 2020 set of security patches.
