The new update is currently available on all the major carrier networks, including AT&T, Comcast, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Xfinity Mobile. If you have a Galaxy Note 20 or a Galaxy Note 20 Ultra on any of these networks, you can head over to Settings » Software update and tap on Download and install to download the new update.
