Samsung plans to release Android 14 even faster – Droid Life

Samsung was faster than ever in 2022 to update its first phones to the newest version of Android. By pushing Android 13 and One UI 5 to the Galaxy S22 at the end of October, Samsung believes it was ahead of the release of the previous update. The Korean tech giant is not stopping there, however, and plans to be “faster” even for releases like Android 14.

In a blog post shared today, Samsung was proud to announce that they had released Android 13 just two months after Google released it to the world and Pixel phones. With Android 12, the time actually seems shorter, as Google waited until October to release it. However, in most years, Google releases the new version of Android around August or early September and then we see companies like Samsung release it to their phones 2-4 months later.

Either way, Samsung would have you believe that they were incredibly fast in releasing Android 13 and One UI 5 and will continue to rapidly implement them in the coming weeks to their best phones. We know that the Galaxy S22 and Galaxy Note 20 have already seen the update, while the Galaxy S21 started seeing it overseas a week ago and the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Flip update should start any moment. The Galaxy S20 is also scheduled to receive Android 13 this month (November).

But for the Android 14 part of this story, Samsung mentioned that it will continue to strengthen cooperation with Google and actively listen to user feedback to continue updating One UI faster and with higher perfection.” Whatever the they call it One UI 6 or something else, Samsung shows no signs that they are satisfied with their current update skills.

They are still the “king” for a reason.
