Samsung is quickly expanding the rollout of its One UI 2.5 update to more mid-range smartphones. The Galaxy A50 and the Galaxy A90 5G are the latest devices to get the One UI 2.5 update. The new firmware update also brings these devices up to speed with the latest security patch.
The Galaxy A50 is now receiving the One UI 2.5 update in India and Sri Lanka. The latest update with firmware version A505FDDU5BTL1 has a file size of 1,202.57MB and it brings along the December 2020 security patch. The Galaxy A90 5G's new firmware version is A908NKSU3CTL3 and it is now rolling out in South Korea.
The new update for the Galaxy A50 brings a Wi-Fi network quality indicator, the ability to request the Wi-Fi password, and support for Bitmoji stickers on the AoD screen. It also brings split keyboard layout and YouTube search to the Samsung Keyboard along with an easier way to find input languages. Apart from the usual performance improvements, better stability, and bug fixes, the Galaxy A50 seemingly gets a Pro video camera mode, SOS calling and location sharing. The Galaxy A90 5G is getting similar features as well.
If you are a Galaxy A50 user in India or Sri Lanka, or a Galaxy A90 user in South Korea, you would've received the One UI 2.5 update notification already. If you haven't received the update yet, you can check for it manually by navigating to Settings » Software update and tapping on Download and install.
