Samsung Galaxy S25 to Feature Seamless A/B System Updates
The upcoming Galaxy S25 series will introduce seamless updates, a feature long resisted by Samsung, enhancing user experience.
- The Galaxy S25 series, launching in early 2025, will include seamless updates through Android's A/B system, allowing users to install updates without downtime.
- This update method uses two partitions, enabling the device to continue operating on one while updates install on the other, reducing the risk of device bricking.
- Samsung previously tested seamless updates on the Galaxy A55, and the S25 series will be the first flagship to incorporate this feature.
- Current Galaxy S24 and S23 models will not support seamless updates due to hardware limitations, requiring a full-system reboot for updates.
- Samsung aims to improve user experience with this feature, aligning with its strategy of offering extended Android upgrade guarantees.
