The May 2023 security patch is already rolling out for the Galaxy S23 series, bringing over 70 fixes for security flaws that affect Android OS and One UI. But it might not be the end of the story for May, and Samsung might have bigger plans for the Galaxy S23 series this month.
Although the May 2023 security patch that started rolling out in Europe yesterday doesn't seem to bring any other changes or features aside from improved security, Samsung is supposedly baking another firmware update for the month of May.
Galaxy S23 May updates may hold more surprises for camera users
This month, Samsung may have planned a two-part update for the Galaxy S23 series, so don't be disappointed if you feel like the May 2023 security patch released yesterday is lacking.
Rumor has it that Samsung may have released the security patch first but could follow it with a 2nd update for May, which will bring general improvements to the camera and low-light photo quality. And among those improvements could be a fix to an HDR issue that can crop up in certain lighting conditions and cause halo effects around objects.
All in all, if you're wondering what the May 2023 update for the Galaxy S23 contains, keep in mind that the security patch released yesterday may only be the beginning, and the story might not be over. By the end of the month, Samsung might have a beefier update for the Galaxy S23 lineup ready to be rolled out. We'll keep you posted.
