Unlocked DualSIM Galaxy Note9 receives One UI update

Enrique, 08 March 2019

We received a tip from a reader in Brazil that the Samsung Galaxy Note9 with model number SM-N9600 has begun receiving the latest Android Pie/Samsung One UI update. Sure enough, Samsung’s changelog for this specific variant shows the update began rolling out on Thursday, March 7.

The SM-9600 is an unlocked dualSIM Snapdragon 845 variant intended for China, Brazil, and the rest of Latin America.

The update includes Android Pie and includes Google’s security patches up until February 1, 2019. With it, the OTA brings Samsung’s newest OneUI and Android 9.0 Pie. The most notable updates with One UI include a new notifications interface, updated Samsung Keyboard, new Always On Display features, and the updated Volume menu.

Other general updates to Bixby, built-in apps, Samsung DeX, and a redesigned Settings app are included as well. Check the source link to see the full update changelog.

Thanks for the tip, Eric!
