The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8, Galaxy S26, and Galaxy S26+ are now receiving the November 2026 Android security patch. These devices follow the Galaxy S26 Ultra, Galaxy Z Fold 8, and Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, which started receiving the update recently.
The November 2026 Android security patch is now reaching the Galaxy S26, S26+, and Flip 8
The update is now reaching the aforementioned phones in Korea, the company’s homeland. This update brings 179 security patches to the devices, which is quite a lot. 155 of those fixes come from Google, while the remaining 24 are issued by Samsung.
All 20 ‘critical’ fixes come from Google, while there are also 141 high-severity flaws fixed. Fixes for those 134 high-severity flaws come from Google, while 3 are issued by Samsung MX and 4 by Samsung Semiconductor.
While the update is now rolling out to devices in Korea, it will spread to more markets in the near future. That will likely happen in the coming days, if it hasn’t already by the time you’re reading this article.
Your phone will let you know once the update is available. However, you can check for it yourself if you want. That could speed things up. You can do so by navigating to Settings -> Software update -> Check for updates.
This update does not include any new features
Do note that this update does not bring any new features to the devices. One UI 9 took care of that, and One UI 9.5 will bring even more features. In the meantime, we have to deal with security updates.
Speaking of which, One UI 9.5 is expected to debut in Q1 2027 on the Galaxy S27 series smartphones. The Galaxy S26 series, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series, and the Galaxy Z Flip 8 will be amongst the first to get that update following the Galaxy S27’s arrival, though.
