Samsung is on a roll today. The South Korean firm has released new software updates to dozens of smartphones and tablets, including the Galaxy A01, Galaxy A20, Galaxy A52s 5G, Galaxy Note 10 series, Galaxy Z Flip 3, and the Galaxy Z Fold 3. The latest Galaxy device to get the new security update is the Galaxy Z Fold 2.

The carrier-locked version of the Galaxy Z Fold 2 (SM-F916U) is getting the October 2021 security update in the US. The update, which comes with firmware version F916USQS2EUI3, is rolling out to devices on T-Mobile's network in the US. Apart from fixing over 60 vulnerabilities related to user privacy and data security, the update might also include device stability improvements and general bug fixes.

If you are a Galaxy Z Fold 2 user on T-Mobile's network, you might have already received the update. If you haven't received it yet, you can check for the update manually by navigating to Settings » Software update and tapping on Download and install. You can also download the latest firmware file from our firmware database and flash it manually.

More carriers could roll out this security update over the next few days. Samsung had launched the Galaxy Z Fold 2 last year with Android 10-based One UI 2.5. Earlier this year, the foldable smartphone received the Android 11-based One UI 3 update.
