Samsung Galaxy S21 series is now receiving the One UI 6 based on Android 14. The S21 series users in India have started getting the One UI 6 OTA update. The firmware build ends with FWL3 and is coupled with a December 2023 security update.
Android 14 will be the third major OS upgrade for the original Galaxy S21 trio and Android 15 will be the final one. The S21 FE, on the other hand, will go on to receive Android 16.
All four models will receive One UI 6.1 in the next couple of months once the Galaxy S24 series is unveiled in January.
The Galaxy S21, S21+, and S21 Ultra owners can download Android 14/One UI 6 for their device from its Settings > Software update menu.
