The latest software update for the Galaxy A51 5G's carrier-locked units comes bearing firmware version A516USQSEGXC3, and it is available on Metro PCS, Sprint, and T-Mobile networks in the USA.
The update is also available for the factory-unlocked version of the Galaxy A51 5G. It comes with firmware version A516U1UESCGXC3, and it is available on all carrier networks in the country.
This update brings the March 2024 security patch to the Galaxy A51 5G to fix around 44 security vulnerabilities found in the previous software versions.
If you have a Galaxy A51 5G and live in the US, you can now check for the new update by opening the Settings app, navigating to Software update, and tapping Download and install.
Alternatively, you can also download the new firmware file from our firmware database and flash it manually. You would need a computer running Windows OS and the Odin tool.
Since the Galaxy A51 5G isn't getting the Android 14-based One UI 6.0 update, you should consider upgrading to the Galaxy S23 FE, which has already received the Android 6.1 update.
