Samsung is pushing out its latest security update — the July 2025 patch — to five Galaxy devices on Verizon’s network in the US. The rollout, which began quietly earlier this week, includes both smartphones and tablets, targeting a mix of newer and still-supported older models.
These Are the Devices Getting the Update:
- Galaxy S24 FE – Build: S721USQS6BYG1
- Galaxy Z Flip 4 – Build: F721USQS8HYFD
- Galaxy Z Fold 4 – Build: F936USQS8HYFD
- Galaxy Tab S10 Plus – Build: X828USQS4BYG4
- Galaxy Tab S8 Plus – Build: X808USQS8DYF3
If you own one of these, you might already see the update notification. If not, it’s likely on its way — Samsung usually staggers rollouts over several days.
What’s New in the July 2025 Patch?
This isn’t a flashy update, but it’s an important one. Samsung says the new firmware enhances system stability and improves security — the kind of under-the-hood tune-up that keeps everything running smoothly.
Specifically, the patch addresses:
- 1 critical vulnerability
- 21 high-risk security issues (CVEs)
- 17 SVE items, Samsung-specific vulnerabilities affecting things like Samsung Account, Wi-Fi security, Bluetooth, and more.
Also included are fixes for potential problems related to Knox security, Galaxy Watch interface, and Emergency SOS — suggesting Samsung is tightening system-wide services, not just phone-level features.
No UI changes or feature additions are noted, and this is strictly a maintenance release — but those matter, especially as devices age.
Samsung: How to Get the July 2025 Update for Verizon
To check if the update is available on your device:
