What's new in the March 2024 update for Galaxy Z Flip 5?
The new software update for the Galaxy Z Flip 5 factory-unlocked model is now available in the US. It comes with firmware version F731U1UES2BXBE and has a relatively smaller download size. It includes the March 2024 security patch that fixes over four dozen security vulnerabilities found in the previous software version.
The new update is available on all carrier networks in the USA.
