Earlier today, Samsung released its new security update for the Galaxy S21 FE in the USA. Now, the company has released the May 2024 security update for the Galaxy S21 FE across Europe. This update comes a few weeks after the One UI 6.1 update, which brought many new features to the phone.

Other countries and regions could get the new security update for the Galaxy S21 FE in the next few days.

The new update for the Galaxy S21 FE comes with firmware versions G990BXXU8GXE1 (for SM-G990B) and G990B2XXU7GXE1 (for SM-G990B2), depending on the model number. The update brings the May 2024 security patch that fixes 45 security vulnerabilities that were recently discovered in Galaxy devices running Android.

Samsung launched the Galaxy S21 FE in early 2022 with Android 12-based One UI 4.0 software pre-installed. It received the Android 13-based One UI 5.0 update in late 2022 and the Android 14-based One UI 6.0 update in late 2023. A few weeks ago, it received the One UI 6.1 update with dozens of new features. However, it didn't get any Galaxy AI feature that appeared on the Galaxy S24.

It will get the Android 15-based One UI 7.0 update later this year.
