As we are all aware, the next Android 14-based software update, One UI 6.0, will be out alongside the launch of the Galaxy S24 series. Samsung is bringing out the upgrade first to a Galaxy flagship model; however, non-flagship mid-range devices will also be getting hands on this update.
Next week, the S24 series will be unveiled, and after that, it is said that the Galaxy S23 series will receive the One UI 6.1 update. After making the update available to recent flagship smartphones, mid-range ones will be focused. The build for the Samsung Galaxy S22 series and Galaxy Z5 Series has recently emerged. The Galaxy A34 5G and Galaxy A54 5G seems to be the first mid-range models to get the One UI 6.1 update.
We can expect the 2023-released gadgets to receive the update soon, and other older devices will be getting the update quite later. A preliminary version of One UI 6.1 for the Samsung Galaxy A54 5G (SM-A546B) has been observed on Samsung servers with the following numbers: A546BXXU6CXA3/A546BOXM6CXA3/A546BXXU6CXA3. While the Galaxy A34 5G spotted on Samsung servers with the codes A346BXXU5CXA1/A346BOXM5CXA1/A346BXXU5CXA1.
Since the Samsung Galaxy A54 and other less expensive models have weaker processing capabilities, it is currently unknown which AI-based functions will be available on them. In theory, since the hardware might not be powerful enough to provide direct processing on devices, it ought to at least provide AI functions that are handled in the cloud.
This is a great move from Samsung, as the One UI 6.1 update brings in several AI features, and more and more earlier models will be experiencing AI-integrated features. Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24+, and Galaxy S24 Ultra—all of these will be launched on January 17th in Las Vegas, California, USA, through the first Unpacked event of 2024.
