A host of eligible Samsung Galaxy devices, including the Note 20, the S20 and S21 series, got the much-awaited Android 13-based One UI 5.0 update last month.

The latest version of the OS first reached Samsung's flagship Galaxy S22 series. Samsung's latest foldables, namely the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Galaxy Z Flip 4, had to wait for a stable version of the One UI 5.0.

The tech giant had announced the One UI 5.0 at the Samsung Developer Conference back in October, showcasing several new features. These included a slew of personalisation options like custom-built Modes and Routines, dynamic lock screen, and a Bixby Text Call feature for its voice assistant that allowed it to answer phone calls and share typed message with the caller.
