When will my Samsung phone get the One UI 3.0 update?

If you purchased a Galaxy phone within the past couple of years, chances are you'll get an update to One UI 3.0 or 3.1. That includes not only flagship devices, but also all of Samsung's cheap Android phones.

On December 2, 2020, we started to see the first trickle of One UI 3.0 making its way to devices with the Galaxy S20 on Verizon getting the update. Just one day later on December 3, Samsung announced that One UI 3.0 was globally rolling out to the Galaxy S20, S20+, and S20 Ultra in the United States, Korea, and select global markets.

On December 8, the T-Mobile versions of the Galaxy S20 series started receiving the stable One UI 3.0 update. As for other Galaxy handsets, the Note 20 series, the S10 series, and the foldables will be next with an update in January. Starting in March, we'll see One UI 3.0 start making its way to phones in the Galaxy A and Galaxy M series.

Starting December 14, the Galaxy Note 20 started receiving the One UI 3.0 stable update. The rollout is kicking off with the AT&T models of the Note 20, but should make its way to other variants and unlocked devices shortly.

On December 22, Samsung started delivering the One UI 3.0 update to the Galaxy S10 Lite, unlocked Note 20 models in the U.S., and the foldable Galaxy Z Flip 5G.

From December 23, the update started going out to the mid-range Galaxy A51 and M31, with the rollout starting in India and Korea. Starting December 27, Samsung kicked off the stable update for the Note 10 and Note 10+ in the U.S.

On January 4, Samsung kicked off the One UI 3.0 update to the S10 and S10 Lite in the U.S. Starting January 6, the stable One UI 3.0 build began rolling out to the Galaxy S20 FE and Note 20 Ultra in India, with Samsung kicking off the update for the Exynos models as well.

Starting January 18, Samsung kicked off the One UI 3.1 update to the Galaxy Tab S7, the first tablet in its portfolio to switch to Android 11. Samsung also started rolling out the One UI 3.0 update to the Galaxy S10 phones in India from January 20.

All through February, Samsung started rolling out the One UI 3.1 update to its older phones in lieu of One UI 3.0. The Galaxy Note 10 Lite, Tab S6, and the Galaxy A71 have all received the stable release of One UI 3.1 based on Android 11 instead of One UI 3.0, and that is great to see.

All through March, Samsung delivered the One UI 3.1 update to its 2020 and 2019 flagships around the world. The Galaxy S10, Note 10, and last year's Galaxy Fold 5G and S20 have all made the switch to One UI 3.1 along with the Galaxy Tab S6. Samsung has also lavished attention on the mid-range Galaxy A71, rolling out the update in most global markets, and the budget-focused Galaxy M51 and M31s.

Starting March 15, the One UI 3.1 update rolled out to the Galaxy A50 and A50s in most Asian markets. The Tab S6 Lite also started getting the stable update, along with the Galaxy A70.
