However, the Galaxy A52 phones will stop at One UI 6.1, a major OS update that they recently received (or are in the process of getting). SamMobile reports that the Galaxy A52, Galaxy A52 5G, and Galaxy A52s will no longer receive OS updates that bring major new features and improvements like One UI 6.1.
The move shouldn’t be surprising though considering that all three Galaxy A52 phones were released three years ago with Android 11 on board. Currently, Samsung offers major Android OS updates for four years, but this “rule” doesn’t cover the Galaxy A52 phones because it was established in 2022.
Since all three Galaxy A52 phones were launched on the market in 2021, they were supposed to receive three major Android OS updates, which they did.
On the bright side, all three Galaxy A52 phones will continue to receive security updates once in a while until 2026. Samsung typically stops supporting phones after five years, so it’s probably time to consider an upgrade. Luckily, Samsung has an entire lineup of new Galaxy A series phones in the pipeline, and the first ones are supposed to hit shelves in early 2025.
