Samsung has updated several Galaxy devices with One UI 5.1.1 and the Galaxy Z Fold 2 is also one of them, but due to the limitations of the server, the company hasn’t expanded the update to all the regions, so now the remaining devices are getting a new update.

Notably, One UI 5.1.1 is rolling out on the Galaxy Z Fold 2 in Canada. Users who own the device can identify the update by the firmware version number F916WVLU4KWH7. The latest update is also coming with a new security patch in the form of an August 2023 update.

OneUI 5.1.1 brings a lot of new features

One UI 5.1.1 is the latest update that comes with a lot of new enhancements under different system-level apps, including Taskbar, Flex mode, Quick Share, Samsung Health, Camera, Gallery, and many more.

The update also brought some more new features, like drag and drop with two hands. It works exactly like a PC, where you use the cursor to move the file to another folder by drag and drop, and now you can do the exact same thing with your hands. Now you can continue to use your device while charging another device wirelessly. Similar to these, there are many other features that came with the new update.

The One UII 5.1.1 is now live for the Canadian units of Galaxy Z Fold 2 smartphones. Users should start getting notifications regarding the update availability, but in case you don’t get the update notification yet, you can also manually check it by going to the system software settings from the main system settings.
