Rick says there is also an update for the Samsung Galaxy A3 (2017). The three-year-old model is getting a newer security patch. It had been a while since the smartphone was updated with a new update. This time it concerns security update November 2020. The patches that were previously released and could not yet be found on the A3 have also been implemented.
