Samsung is on a roll today. Earlier today, the company released new software updates to the Galaxy S20 FE, Galaxy S20 FE 5G, Galaxy Tab Active 3, and the Galaxy Tab S6. Now, the South Korean firm has released the update to the Galaxy A71, which is among Samsung's best-selling phones of 2020.
The latest software update for the Galaxy A71 comes with firmware version A715FXXS8BUL1. The update is currently rolling out in some European countries, including Austria, the Czech Republic, Germany, Ireland, and the UK. The new update could reach more markets over the next few days. The new firmware includes the December 2021 security update that fixes many privacy and security-related vulnerabilities.
If you are a Galaxy A71 user in any of the countries mentioned above, you can check for the new update 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.
Samsung had launched the Galaxy A71 in early 2020 with Android 10-based One UI 2.5. It received the Android 11-based One UI 3.1 update earlier this year and could get the Android 12-based One UI 4.0 update in the first half of next year.
