New update hitting Samsung Galaxy A5 (2017)

Samsung has started pushing a new update to its Galaxy A5 (2017) smartphone. Arriving as firmware version A520FXXU4BRA8 and weighing in at 22MB, it's a security update that brings the January security patch.

The update is currently hitting units in Europe (the Netherlands to be specific), although it's reasonable to assume that other regions will also be getting it sooner than later.

It's worth mentioning that none of the South Korean company's flagship devices have received the January security patch yet.
