2020’s Samsung Galaxy A12 did come as an entry-level that has been rated quite well by users though it’s incapable of handling major tasks seamlessly. We’ve already noticed that the South Korean tech giant Samsung has put the Galaxy A12 model in such a state that the device gets security updates twice a year. As the year 2024 has arrived in its half position, Samsung Galaxy A12 gets May 2024 Security Patch via Verizon for its carrier-locked variants in the USA.
Verizon has recently rolled out the latest May 2024 Android security patch level for the Galaxy A12 carrier-locked model in the United States which includes plenty of security risk fixes and overall device optimization for better performance. The latest firmware version SP1A.210812.016.A125USQS8CXE6 has been included with this release.
Adding the most latest security patch version to Android devices always helps users to get a stable and improved performance along with the security vulnerability fixes. With this update, Samsung has fixed almost 45+ security risk exposures to its Galaxy devices which is a good thing.
It’s an initial update so a few more days or weeks may take further to distribute the patch update on all Galaxy A12 units. As we’ve already mentioned this new security patch update fixes more than 45 security bugs, it includes 3 critical, 26 high-level CVEs, and 25 SVE fixes. So, you won’t face any kind of major security threat or app crashes while performing multiple tasks.

In case, you haven’t received the OTA update notification yet, head over to the device Settings menu on your device > Tap on Software Update > Hit Download and Install.

However, if the update still has not arrived on your Verizon-specific variant, don’t worry. You can either wait for a few days or manually install the firmware using the Samsung stock firmware installation guide.
