Today, Samsung has released new software updates to multiple Galaxy devices, including the Galaxy A31, Galaxy A71 5G, and the Galaxy Note 10+ 5G. The company has now released a new security update to the Galaxy A02s, an entry-level smartphone that was launched earlier this year.

The Galaxy A02s has started getting a new software update with firmware version A025MUBU2BUH5 in Uruguay. This new software includes the August 2021 security patch, which fixes 40 privacy and security-related vulnerabilities. The update could roll out in other markets over the next few days.
