While Samsung is launching the Galaxy S24 series worldwide, the company has not forgotten its older, lower-priced smartphones. Several devices started getting the January 2024 security update from the second week of this month, and it is now the Galaxy A34 that is getting the new security update.
The latest software update for the Galaxy A34 is now available, and it comes with firmware version A346BXXS5BWL2. The update is available in European countries and is rolling out in Austria, Croatia, France, Ireland, Italy, Poland, Portugal, Serbia, Slovenia, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, and the UK. Other countries and regions around the world could get the new update within the next few days.
The January 2024 security patch included in the new software update brings close to 75 security fixes to the Galaxy A34. These were the security flaws that were discovered in the previous versions of Samsung's software. The new update doesn't include any new features or performance improvements. You can check for the new update by opening the Settings app on your phone and navigating to Software update » Download and install. Alternatively, you can download the new firmware filde from our firmware database and flash it manually using a computer running Windows OS and the Odin tool.
Samsung launched the Galaxy A34 in early 2023 with Android 13 onboard. The mid-range phone received the Android 14-based One UI 6.0 update a few weeks ago. It will get three more Android OS updates in the future if Samsung upholds its promise of rolling out a total of four Android OS updates to the device.
