Samsung Starts Wide November Security Update for Recent Galaxy Phones, Foldables, and Tab S11

The security-only release starts in South Korea before rolling out in staged waves to other markets.

Overview

The November 2025 patch is now live for the Galaxy S23, S24, and S25 lineups, recent Z Fold and Z Flip models (6 and 7), and the Galaxy Tab S11 series, with initial availability confirmed in South Korea.
Unlocked Galaxy A54 units in the United States have received the update, with carrier-locked variants expected to follow as the staged rollout expands.
Coverage cites roughly three dozen fixes, commonly described as 25 from Google and 9 from Samsung, plus Exynos-specific patches that vary by report, bringing the total to around 34 to nearly 40 vulnerabilities addressed.
Packages are security-only with no new features, and reported sizes range from about 300MB on Tab S11 to roughly 350–450MB on the latest foldables; published firmware identifiers include X730XXS3AYJ3/X930XXS3AYJ3 for Tab S11 models.
The rollout is widening beyond the launch wave, with the Galaxy S22 series now receiving the November update in India as Samsung continues regional releases.
