The Galaxy Note 10 and 10+ have started to exhibit updates to One UI 2.0 based on Android 10. This may be good news for owners of these premium phablets, particularly as this upgrade had reportedly been scheduled for 2020. On the other hand, the OTA may have reached a limited user-pool thus far.

Samsung has been observed to push a stable, official build of One UI 2.0 based on Android 10 to the Galaxy Note 10 and 10+. This upgrade has also recently become available to the Galaxy S10 series - and well ahead of schedule, too, based on the most recent update roadmap associated with this OEM. This development also puts the Note 10 series well ahead of these projections, which originally put it at the February 2020 stage of this process.

This new firmware is known as N97*FXXU1BSL7 for the Galaxy Note 10 and 10+, and includes December 2019 security patches. It has presumably been developed on the strength of the One UI 2.0 beta program for the phablets in question. This has been the only way to get at the latest version of Android on these devices so far. On the other hand, only those users who had participated in this same initiative have apparently seen the new, stable update.

In addition, it has only been detected in certain markets such as the Netherlands to date. However, it is speculated that this new software upgrade will be rolled out further to non-beta users in the very near future. Otherwise, SamMobile has indicated that it plans to host its download package soon in any case. Therefore, Galaxy Note 10/10+ users may not even have to wait for the notification to update to pop up on their screens.
