Samsung has been improving the speed at which it rolls out the latest Android build and says it will be even faster with Android 14.
) said that this year's update"drastically reduced the time interval" between the release of Android 13 and the"deployment" of One UI 5.0. Samsung has shown a big improvement in how fast it delivers the latest Android version. Outside of Google's own Pixel devices, it can take a few months for Android phones to receive the latest build of the operating system.Samsung was the fastest of any Android phone manufacturer in delivering Android 13 to its customers .
The One UI interface that Samsung pushes out with the latest Android update was created to help its customers use large-screened handsets with one hand. This is accomplished by moving most of the actionable elements to the bottom of the display. Samsung says that it took only two months from the time Google released the final stable version of Android 13 in August to October 24th when it first dropped the Android 13/One UI 5.0 update. Again, the company says that it will be even faster in 2023 with Android 14/One UI 6.
In case you're wondering, it seems that the upcoming Galaxy S23 flagship series will have Android 13 pre-installed along with One UI 5.1. Just yesterday we passed along a report that says. The Galaxy S23 line is expected to be unveiled during the next Samsung Unpacked event which could take place in January or February of 2023.
One area where Samsung is ahead of Google's Pixels is in the number of Android updates its flagship models receive. While both the latest Pixels and the Galaxy S22 receive five years of security updates, the latter will receive four years of major Android updates compared to just three with the Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 lines. This should be embarrassing to Google since, as we've pointed out, it designs the phone and develops the software.
