This year 2024 has been a very busy year for Samsung in terms of launches. To the Galaxy S24 arriving in January, we must also add the new foldable Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6 (as well as the Galaxy S24 FE, which arrived a few weeks ago). What’s next for the South Korean company? should arrive early next year: new Galaxy S25.

New devices on your line flagship They have been the victim of numerous leaks to the point that we already know everything about their design. It’s inside where there are more unknowns, especially when it comes to functions. A new leak shows this These devices will bring one of those available on other Android phones and this could be the gateway to other Galaxies incorporating it in the future.

Galaxy S25 will allow seamless updates

Samsung is obsessed with ensuring that its devices provide the user with the smoothest experience possible. One UI 7 will take another step in this direction, as we can see from its animations. This is what it looks like It will be implemented as standard in the new Galaxy S25As X user Chun Bhai noted (via Sammobile).

According to him, who has previously leaked details about Samsung phones, the new Galaxy S25 will bring a functionality found on Android devices: A/B updates or seamless. The arrival of this new function flagship The situation of the Korean company is quite curious because This isn’t the first device he’s ownedbecause the Galaxy A55 already came with it.

This function, introduced by Google in 2016, is very useful. Basically, A/B updates are delivered to the user. You can continue using your device while the system applies a new patch.something that isn’t currently possible on most Galaxy’s. This is because the system always runs from a different partition than the partition chosen to apply the update.

The system will also need to be rebooted after the update is applied. Now booting will be much faster thanks to this partition system, which again means: a seamless user experience.

This function unfortunately I can’t pass the update to old phones. The partitions have to be created at the hardware level, which means it could only come on new devices like the Galaxy S25. Of course, this arrival may be an indication that the company’s future phones will also have A/B updates.
