These smartphones and tablets get Android 12
Samsung has completed the Android 12 update with One UI 4 and has already started distributing the new software to the first smartphones. At the same time, the company has published a list that shows exactly which smartphones and tablets will still receive the update.
Samsung: Android 12 update for these smartphones and tablets
Samsung’s update policy can now be described as excellent. Monthly Updates are distributed extremely quickly and the Android 12 update with the heavily adapted One UI 4 interface was quickly made available for the top smartphones in the Galaxy S21 series. This time Samsung only needed a month longer than Google with the Pixel smartphones.
Now, of course, the question arises as to which Galaxy smartphones and tablets will still receive the Android 12 update with One UI 4? This is exactly what Samsung answers in the small print of the press release:
Android 12 for Samsung smartphones:
- Samsung Galaxy S21 (already available)
- Samsung Galaxy S21 Plus (already available)
- Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra (already available)
- Samsung Galaxy S20

- Samsung Galaxy S10 5G
- Samsung Galaxy Note 10
- Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Plus
- Samsung Galaxy Fold
- Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2
- Samsung Galaxy Z Flip
- Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5G
- Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3

- Samsung Galaxy A82 5G
- Samsung Galaxy A72
- Samsung Galaxy A52
- Samsung Galaxy A52 5G
- Samsung Galaxy A52s 5G
- Samsung Galaxy A42 5G
Android 12 for Samsung tablets:
- Samsung Galaxy Tab S7
- Samsung Galaxy Tab S7 Plus
At first glance, there are of course a lot of devices, but there are also some popular models such as the Galaxy A51 or the cheaper Galaxy tablets that have just come onto the market missing. With the tablets in particular, we cannot imagine Samsung not equipping them with Android 12. That Galaxy A51 is likely to be too old. Presumably this is the list that you fill up first. Other models may then follow. Maybe then only with Android 12 and without a One-UI-4 interface.
