Samsung has officially started the stable rollout of Android 16 this week and, at the same time, confirmed a list of Galaxy phones and tablets set to be updated, mostly starting in October.
The stable One UI 8 rollout started today, September 15, for the Galaxy S25 series in several regions including Korea, the US, and the UK among others. Samsung has confirmed that older devices will follow, with broader updates in October.
