Earlier this year, Samsung launched its flagship trio consisting of Galaxy S20, S20 Plus, and S20 Ultra. The lineup originally arrived with the Android 10 operating system having One UI 2.0 skin on top. It looks like the chaebol is now planning to roll out a new major update to the device. We’re talking about the upcoming One UI 2.5. For those who’re unaware, the yet-to-unveiled Galaxy Note 20 lineup will make use of this software version.

Galaxy S20 might soon get One UI 2.5 after the launch of the Note 20 series!

One UI 2.1

With Galaxy S20 lineup, Samsung seems to be taking a different road for One UI updates. To recall, the previous-gen S10 arrived with One UI 1.1 out of the box. The device later got updated to One UI 2.0 directly without witnessing the middle One UI 1.5 update. Considering that in mind, the S20 users might also be looking for direct One UI 3.0 Android 11 update. Well, that might not happen.

Considering previous patterns, the beta program should commence somewhere in the month of October.
