AUHB in the last one for exynos version dated on 26/08/21.
It's not 3.1.1 but 3.1 with some 3.1.1 futures.
Animation is awesome and smoother, weather app without ads and with some new animations.
Focus is better on camera. Bed time is here. And other bugs fixed. Battery life is slightly better.
6h sot and more.

      In Europe we got G991BXXU3AUGM on August 14th, no improvements other than "overall stability" and security patch.

        Has the new weather program been redesigned, or is it completely different than before?

                  Even the S10 series received those features with today's August update: bedtime mode, some camera updates etc. However the One UI version remained 3.1

                          Another nonsense article related to Scamsung updates...
                          First of all, Scamsung updates are terribly fragmented, yet nobody here seems to notice, nobody seems to care.
                          Mentioning the specific country and specific CSC is in order, since samsung releases separate updates based not only on country, carrier locked/unlocked status, but also on specific CSC version!
                          Your screenshot is taken on Canadian W model, running FMC customization (Fido?) and when you look at it's software release history, it is indeed second update containing Aug 1 security patch. (For some reason this specific model missed July update completely...)
                          https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-G991W/FMC/doc.html

                          Now the T-Mobile variant you mentioned in the same article, is for locked T-Mobile version (U) and is only the first update for August, finally released on Aug 20. Yes added VoNR toggle, but for some reason still no eSIM support, if that's ever coming.
                          https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-G991U/TMB/doc.html
                          https://www.reddit.com/r/tmobile/comments/p7wg54/tmobile_s21_ultra_just_got_the_august_update_an/

                          Meanwhile, customers who elected byuing carrier unlocked models in US (U1), and are unfortunate enough to use T-Mobile network (TMB), are only receiving August update today, on August 25th, compared to generic XAA configuration having it received on Aug 10.
                          https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-G991U1/TMB/doc.html
                          https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-G991U1/XAA/doc.html

                          Those using one of T-Mobiles MVNOs (XAG configuration) are even worse off, since Aug patch is still not available as of now.
                          https://doc.samsungmobile.com/SM-G991U1/XAG/doc.html

                          This clearly shows the idiocy of Samsung's software architecture and fragmentation. Instead of separating the firmware updates and network configuration, they continue to release it this way. As a consequence, you are bound by network provider delays and screwups, even if you bought unlocked by Samsung and want to have nothing to do with carrier's network customization. Tough luck, as T-Mobile is embroiled in current data leak fiasco and has different priorities.

                            Not true.
                            Still 3.1 One IU

                              Gotta love vague changelogs.

                              Congratulations, we improved many things. We can't tell you what we improved, but we totally did! The link below doesn't work unless it's fetched from the phone. Do they provide more detailed changelog or is the vague list in the popup "it" ?

                                    So now it will be able to use Tele and 108MP in pro mode? And did they add back hide notch? If not, then it's just another "security" update.
