    Samsung has officially started rolling out the latest security update for its previous generation of flagship smartphones. The Galaxy S23 lineup is now receiving the February 2024 security patch, so here are all the details.

    Samsung Galaxy S23 Series Security Update

    To recall, the South Korean tech giant has released the Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23+, and the Galaxy S23 Ultra last year. It is now updating the security of these high-end models. The latest software update has a download size of around 400MB and upgrades the security to the latest February 2024 patch. Unfortunately, it does not bring any notable changes or enhancements in performance on the Galaxy S23 series.

    More Secure Device

    Although, the latest security patch does ensure a more secure device. This security upgrade is currently rolling out in India, so you can head to “Settings” and then “Software update” to check if you have received the update. Hit “Download and Install” if your Galaxy S23 series model has received the new patch.

    Build Number and Price Drops

    This latest update carries the build number S918BXXS3BXAD/S918BOXM3BWJM/S918BXXS3BXA2 for the Android 14 OS based One UI 6 custom skin. These premium-grade handsets had also previously received the January 2024 security patch update last month and have seen notable price drops in the Indian market as well.
