      Got mine minutes ago in the Czech Republic on the Note20 Ultra.

            Does the update mean Android 13 will finally be compatible with hearing aids?

              sadh, 08 Nov 2022Umm it's actually still getting updated for 1 last maj... moreThat only applies to the S21 and newer series since they are eligible for four major OS update. S20 and Note20 series are forever stuck in the three major OS update plan, so this Android 13 with OneUI 5 rollout will be the last for them since they were originally shipped with Android 10 out of the box. S21 will go all the way up to Android 15.

                  UX feels like there are some serious optimizations. Good job Samsung and Google!

                    At least they put back date time watermark in cam.

                      My Z Fold 3 hasn't been updated yet :/

                        Anonymous, 07 Nov 2022Is it normal that i still haven't got the update even ... moreI also still haven't got the update for my unlocked Snapdragon S22 Ultra (basically the best version).

                        Pathetic

                          Just got it yesterday in UK (07.11.22) and definitely I see a major software improvement related to speed over the previous android 12. Minor improvements also to battery. I have international unlocked model

                            That's it then, the last major OS update for the S20 and Note20 series. Time for me to get a used S20 Ultra since the S20 and Note20 series is now a bit of a specialty for being the last lineup to have Samsung's in-house Mongoose CPU.

                                        I have German firmware flashed on my Australian S21, but the update hasn't arrived. Maybe it's rolling out in batches in Germany or maybe I'll have to flash manually.
