The Samsung Galaxy A72 was the last handset in the Galaxy A7x Series that people purchased in any meaningful numbers. The Galaxy A72 still holds up pretty well when it comes to hardware and many users who own a Galaxy A72 likely won’t want to switch to a newer handset just yet.
However, what about the software aspect? Does this device still hold up and will it be getting any new major OS updates? This is why many users are wondering if the Samsung Galaxy A72 handsets will be getting the Android 14-based One UI 6 update.
The Galaxy A72 launched almost two and a half years ago. In that time, the handset has received two major Android updates – Android 12 and Android 13 updates, with the recent one bringing their smartphone to One UI version 5.1 But will it be getting the Android 14 update?
Will Samsung Galaxy A72 be getting the Android 14-based One UI 6 update?
The Samsung Galaxy A72 is eligible to receive three generations of OS updates and the Android 14 is set to be the final one. However, the One UI updates will not be stopping at One UI 6.0. Next year, Samsung will be rolling out the One UI 6.1 update with the Samsung Galaxy S24 Series and it will likely come to the Galaxy A72 too.
The Galaxy A72 might also get a few features from One UI 6.1.1, which will be debuting with Samsung’s 2024 foldable flagship models. However, it isn’t guaranteed. Even if it does get One UI 6.1.1 features, its software information screen will display 6.1 in the One UI version field.
Coming to when will Android 14 and One UI 6 come for Galaxy A72, it will likely take you until 2024 to get the answer as Samsung has several new smartphones to focus its efforts on.
