Verizon based Galaxy Note9, A71, and other Samsung phones gets December 2020 update

Samsung started rolling out the December Security Patch update for their unlocked devices around 2 weeks ago. Even though they were busy with the One UI 3.0 beta testing, Samsung also started rolling out the latest Security Patch in the U.S at the beginning of December. As said earlier, after almost 2 weeks the Verizon based Galaxy Note9, A71, and other Samsung phones started receiving December 2020 security update. The update only seems to improve Security in the form of a routine Security Patch update.

The delay may be further felt by the users since not all of’em is going to get the update the same day. These OTA updates are always rolled out in batches for better bug tracking and for improving reception.

The update is not just limited for the flagships, some of the mid-range devices like the A51 are also receiving the December update. This could mean that more devices from Samsung will receive the update very soon.
