According to the info, Samsung Galaxy S20, Galaxy A52 5G, and Galaxy A71 devices will get the new One UI 5.1 update on March 21 in Canada. In addition, the firmware will also bring the latest March 2023 security patch to keep the system software secure against various threats.

One UI 5.1 is going to be the last major software update for the Galaxy S20 series and Galaxy A71. These four devices launched with Android 10-based One UI 2.1 out of the box and were eligible for three generations of major OS upgrades.

On the other hand, the Galaxy A52 5G was launched in 2021, running the Android 11-based One UI 3.1 pre-installed. This phone is also supported for up to three Android upgrades, and the support is scheduled to end with the release of Android 14 this year.

Samsung’s new One UI 5.1 software is still based on the Android 13 operating system. Over the vanilla One UI 5 version, the 5.1 brings some additional new features such as a battery widget, enhanced Gallery & Camera along with refined performance and fluency.

Since the carrier will begin the rollout on March 21, we recommend you download the firmware over an unmetered internet connection such as WiFi. It’s not necessary to create a backup of your data prior to software installation but you can create one to get back the data in case of any mishappening.

One UI 5.1 update added a Battery widget feature that shows you the battery status of your phone along with the buds, smartwatches, and other connected devices’ batteries at a glance. It’s available in two forms – Circular and List.

The weather section has more changes, such as the Dynamic Weather widget that provides a summary of the current weather conditions, whereas, the Smart suggestion widget provides you with Spotify music and playlist recommendations that match your activities.

Furthermore, the Bixby Text Call feature is now supporting the English language, enabling customers to receive and answer calls conveniently in meetings, classrooms, or other places where they are not able to speak on calls.

Talking about the Camera, the One UI 5.1 update makes it easy to change the color tone of selfies through the Effects button on the side of the screen. Into the camera, it also adds a shortcut to launch the Expert RAW app so you capture high-quality pictures effortlessly.

The Samsung Gallery app is also getting many notable changes. It not only improves the picture editing tools but also makes picture sharing and searching easier on the app. At the same time, it improves handling and offers a more convenient information display.

In addition, the update also allows users to set different wallpapers on the lock screen and the home screen depending on their current activities, such as work, sports, and others by setting different modes.

Next, the company improved Samsung DeX to make it easy to maximize or minimize windows without opening options. Samsung Internet gets updated with the integration of continuous browsing on another device feature.

According to the information, Samsung will release the One UI 5.1 enhancements to the Galaxy A53 5G smartphone on March 7 in Canada. In addition to new features, the update will include the February 2023 security maintenance release for better security.

Samsung announced the Galaxy A53 5G smartphone with Android 12-based One UI 4.1 last year. In late 2022, the device upgraded to the Android 13-based One UI 5.0 version, while the One UI 5.1 is also based on v13. Anyways, there will be more new features and optimization for a better user experience.

One UI 5.1 is an improved version of Samsung’s Android 13-based One UI 5.0 skin. This new version brings select Galaxy S23 features and enhancements to system animation and visual effects to provide you with a more natural feel while using a Galaxy device.

The new software lets you change the color tone of your selfies quite easily, thanks to the newly added toggle. Gallery now has a better search function as you can search for people by just tapping the face icon. Moreover, the images now show more information about the shot and location.

There are new home screen widgets so you can stay connected with the battery status of paired devices such as smartwatch, wireless earbuds, and so on. Apart from the battery status widget, the Smart Suggestions widget now recommends Spotify tracks and the Dynamic Weather widget added more graphics.

The Galaxy A53 5G smartphone has already started getting this One UI 5.1 firmware in the international market. However, the South Korean tech giant is rapidly expanding its availability across the globe. Get ready for March 7 as One UI 5.1 is on the way!

One UI 5 is capable of grabbing text from any image including the camera viewfinder in realtime. It makes users happy as they are no longer required to type something from an image to share with someone. You just need to tap the “T” icon on image or camera interface and that’s it!

Hearing consumer feedback, the company has also added the ability to turn off RAM Plus. This change prevents the smartphone from eating its internal storage, however, you can also extend RAM using options including 2GB, 4GB, 6GB and 8GB.

Apart from this, Samsung’s Android 13 update introduces new visual effects as well as improved system animations so you can have a natural feel while using a Galaxy. Themed App Icons can now be applied to all categories of compatible apps including Samsung, Google and third-party devs.

Vast collection of Color Palette makes it easier to optimize the user interface of your device, and the additional Color choices extend possibilities. For my S22 Ultra, I picked the first wallpaper that arrived in Graphical section, but, I don’t use Color Palette or themed app icons.

In Canada, the Galaxy S22, S22 Plus and S22 Ultra smartphones may get the October 2022 security patch as well, in addition to the One UI 5.0 update. It’s worth mentioning that the company has also debuted the November 2022 patch for the Fold 4 devices, but, there are very less chances of its arrival for the S22 range.

Samsung’s Android 13-based One UI 5.0 update introduces a slew of new features along with radical customization capabilities. While the Maintenance Mode lets you get your Galaxy device repaired securely, the Themed Icons support takes the customization experience to a whole new level.

Through the LCD Glass Panel Replacement Program, Samsung Canada gives yet another commitment to improving sustainability across all of its operations, products, and services to offer customers a cost-effective option for screen repair service.

Samsung’s LCD Glass Panel Replacement Program provides consumers with high-quality repair service, which will replace a damaged LCD glass on their (qualified) Galaxy smartphone instead of having to replace the complete LCD module.

Meanwhile, it’s important to mention that the service is available for specific models that are activated in Canada. In order to qualify for screen glass repair, the device cannot have:

1. A damaged frame or swelling of the battery
2. Any other hardware failures (detected during the triage process)
3. Eligible devices – Galaxy S and Galaxy Note

In case your damaged Galaxy device doesn’t qualify for screen glass repair, Samsung’s authorized service center will contact you and share alternative solutions to get the device repaired. This event ensures minimizing the environmental impact of completing repairs by using fewer parts.

According to the latest information, Canadian network carrier Fido mentioned on its software support page that the Samsung Galaxy S21, S21+, S21 Ultra, and S21 FE smartphones will start getting the One UI 4.1 update as well as the new security patch from March 15.

While Fido is going to release the Android 12-based One UI 4.1 from March 15, the international variants of the Samsung Galaxy S21 series (S21 FE too) will be able to upgrade to the new One UI iteration sometime in the second week of this month.

Alongside the Galaxy S22 series smartphones, Samsung introduced the first mid-cycle version of its Android 12 skin. The new One UI 4.1 comes with select new and useful features, however, there are no significant changes noted in the user interface.

For your information, it’s expected that the One UI 4.1 will bring the advanced RAM Plus feature for older Galaxy devices, at least flagships, making them able to customize the size of virtual RAM created by occupying the phone’s internal storage up to 8GB.

Just like last year, several Samsung phones and tablets are likely to get the Android 12-based new One UI 4.1 features and changes through firmware updates. It’s also noteworthy that the company has stalled the Android 12 rollout for two months, which is assumed to resume soon.
