Galaxy S10, S10 Plus and S10e update
- Current stable version: Android 10
- When will the Galaxy S10, S10 Plus and S10e get Android 10? Rollout now (December 2019)
The Galaxy S10, S10 Plus and S10e were launched with Android 9 Pie, which was the latest version of Android at the time. They are expected to receive two major updates in the future that are in line with most of the flagship Android phones.
Users in Germany (including those who did not participate in the beta program) received the stable Android 10 update on November 28th. Android 16 was launched on December 16 for Verizon, Sprint, T-Mobile and AT&T in the S10 series. At that time, the update was also rolled out for many Canadian airlines. US-unlocked models received the update on December 23rd.
Samsung added a number of Note 10 features to its Samsung Galaxy S10 family shortly after the phablet line launched. On November 8, 2019, the South Korean company brought even more Note 10 features to its S-series phones.
The Gallery app has been updated to search for photos with keywords like “cat” to see … photos of cats. Samsung has also added an advanced device search that can be used to find content in streaming apps. A media and devices button has also been added to the Quick Panel that allows users to control a range of connected devices.
Aside from the fun but silly AR Doodle camera mode, the only other feature on Note 10 that made the transition possible was an optimization from Samsung Dex that allows users to edit videos dynamically when connected to a PC or Mac. You can read the official blog post with all the changes here.
Samsung Galaxy S10 devices saw the land of the March 2020 security patch in late February. Even Google’s line of Pixel phones didn’t get the update that early.
Samsung announced in April that the Galaxy S20 camera features previously released for select Galaxy S10 phones are now available for Canadian device variants. New features include single shot mode, night hyperlapse, custom filters, pro video mode, and more. The update also introduced new features for Quick Share and Music Sharing. Quick Share allows Galaxy S10 users to easily share photos, videos, and other large files with nearby contacts, while Music Sharing allows other users to play their music on Bluetooth devices connected to your Galaxy S10. Further details on the new camera functions can be found here.
Samsung started rolling out the One UI 2.5 update to users in Germany in September. The update weighed around 963 MB and brought features that were first used in the Galaxy Note 20 series. This included Wireless Dex, which allows users to cast the phone’s desktop environment onto Miracast-enabled screens.
