    The upper mid-range smartphone Galaxy A71 has been promoted to the One UI 3.1 firmware version. It brings lots of advanced features along with the February security patch. After finishing all the flagship models of the current & previous year, Samsung has now turned to mid-range devices. The good part is the company has skipped the One UI 3.0 update for the 4G model and directly installed the latest One UI 3.1 version. That means, after installing this software on your Galaxy A71 4G, you will get all the features included in One UI 3.0 & One UI 3.1 versions.

    The notable features according to the changelog are, the visual design has an enhanced main screen & quick dashboard to reduce any distraction and highlight essential information. It also tweaked the firmware to run it faster and drink less battery juice. The new privacy control & Digital balance function will make sure to protect your data and your online presence. After the update, users can use Nearby Sharing to send the files instead of the Wi-Fi Direct feature.

    Along with these features, in the One UI 3.1 version, Samsung has introduced many new features. The changelog didn’t mention them, but we guess, all the features would have come to the device. If all the features have come, then Galaxy A71 gets an auto switch function for Galaxy Buds Pro, Buds Live & Buds+.

    Further, it includes Eye shield comfort, multi-mic recording, and private share features. It is better to install the update and find all these features yourself. The latest firmware version A715FXXU3BUB5 is available to install in Poland. The update is over 2.6GB in size, so it is good for you to connect with a Wi-Fi network. You will soon see this major firmware in other countries.

    High-end Galaxy A Series Phones may Get Android OS Updates For 3 Years

    In the launching event of Galaxy Note 20 & other major Galaxy devices, Samsung has promised to deliver major Android OS updates for 3 years to its flagship devices. The promising devices that will receive the major rollouts are Galaxy S10, Galaxy Note 10, Galaxy S20 & Galaxy F series, which are eligible to get three-year support. Now, the new revealing from the customer representative at Samsung South Korea, some Galaxy A series of smartphones may also get the same treatment. When the customer asked about his Galaxy A90 to whether the smartphone will get 3 years of Android OS updates, the executive answered with a possible answer.

    In the answer, the representative clearly mentions the upper mid-range or high-end Galaxy A series of smartphones released after Galaxy S10 is under additional reviews. Further, he said, the company is checking hardware specs and resources of these devices to come to a final thought. Once the company decides, it will publish the news on the Samsung Member app. There are also chances for high-end tablets to get 3-year support, as they have also launched with top-notch hardware specs.

    Samsung Android OS Updates

    Here is the important translation from the screenshot.

    Please note that, unfortunately, the previous release models Galaxy S9, Note9, A series and tablet products are not applicable, as hardware specifications and resources are considered. High-end A series and tablet products released after the S10 are under additional review, and detailed OS upgrade policies will be announced later by checking hardware specifications and resources.Please refer to the Samsung Members app announcement, Samsung Electronics’ official channel.

    Samsung has already declared that the Galaxy Note 9 & Galaxy S9 and the previous flagship or Galaxy A series devices will not get major updates. Even there is less possibility that the Galaxy S9 & Note 9 will receive One UI 2.5 version. Now we have to see what Samsung makes in the final decision about the high-end Galaxy A series. If this happens, the Galaxy A90, Galaxy A80, Galaxy A71, and their 5G variants will surely get the 3-years support.
