Samsung has confirmed several models that will receive Android 15, including recent flagship and some mid-range phones. This article lists those models, outlines the expected rollout timeline, highlights key features Android 15 brings to Samsung devices, explains how to check your update status, and offers advice if your phone isn’t on the update list. ## Which Samsung phones are confirmed to get Android 15? Samsung released Android 15 as One UI 7\. Eligible phones included the Galaxy S25 series (which launched with it), the S24, S23, S22, and S21 series, the Galaxy Z Fold6, Fold5, Fold4, and Fold3, and the Z Flip6, Flip5, Flip4, and Flip3, plus many Galaxy A and M models such as the A55, A54, A35, A34, and A25\. Tablets such as the Galaxy Tab S10, S9, and S8 series were also included. The Galaxy S20 and Note 20 series did not get Android 15; their last major update was Android 13. Older or entry-level Samsung phones typically do not receive this update. If your device is a flagship or a popular mid-range model released in the last few years, it’s likely supported or will be soon if not yet announced. ![A Samsung Galaxy S23 smartphone showing confirmation of the Android 15 update.](https://tse1.mm.bing.net/th?q=Samsung%20Galaxy%20S23%20smartphone%20with%20Android%2015%20update%20confirmation&w=624&h=352&c=7) ## When can you expect Android 15 on your Samsung device?

It launched on the Galaxy S25 series in February 2025, and the stable rollout to older models began in April 2025, starting with the S24 series and then the S23, foldables, and A series over the following weeks and months. Rollouts usually start in South Korea and then expand, and carrier models can lag behind unlocked ones. The rollout often begins in South Korea and the US before expanding to other regions.

Android 15 brings Private Space-style protection (Samsung uses its Secure Folder), partial screen sharing, and stronger theft protection. One UI 7 adds Samsung’s own redesign with new icons and animations, the Now Bar on the lock screen for live activities, a separate notification and Quick Settings panel, and Galaxy AI features on supported models. Foldables get improved multitasking. It also offers finer permission management, more control over background apps, and better battery optimization. Foldable users get improved app continuity and multitasking gestures. Samsung may include exclusive features tailored to their hardware, like camera improvements or new edge panel options. ## How to check if your Samsung phone has Android 15 available? 1. Open the Settings app on your Samsung phone. 2. Scroll down and tap "Software update". 3. Tap "Download and install" to check if the Android 15 update is available. 4. If an update appears, follow the prompts to download and install it. Alternatively, you can use the Samsung Members app: 1. Open the Samsung Members app. 2. Tap "Notices" or "Updates" to see if there is a notification about Android 15. Make sure your phone is connected to Wi-Fi and has enough battery before starting the update. ## What if your Samsung device isn’t on the Android 15 list? If your phone isn’t listed for Android 15, Samsung has likely ended major Android updates for that model. Your options include: - Keep using your phone on its current software version. It may still get security patches if supported. - For technically skilled users, installing custom ROMs that bring Android 15 features is possible but voids warranty and carries risks. - Consider upgrading to a newer Samsung phone or another Android device that supports the latest updates. Using an older Android version isn’t immediately harmful but could limit app compatibility and security over time. ## Conclusion Knowing whether your Samsung phone will get Android 15 helps you prepare for new features and security updates. Regularly check for updates through your phone’s settings or Samsung apps and watch for the rollout timeline. If your device isn’t eligible, weigh your options between continuing with your current software, exploring custom ROMs, or upgrading your phone. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### Will all Samsung phones get Android 15?
