Samsung‘s Android 14 and One UI 6.0 rollout is well and truly underway. Earlier this week, it released the big update for the Galaxy S22 series along with a wider availability for the Galaxy S23 series. The company followed up with an update for the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 in the US. It is now pushing the new Android version to the Galaxy S23 FE and Galaxy A54 5G.

The Galaxy S23 FE gets its first major Android OS update

Samsung launched the Galaxy S23 FE last month with Android 13 onboard. It was an ill-timed release as Android 14 was already official by the time it arrived in the market. A month later, the phone is picking up its first major Android OS update. It will get three more of them, i.e. up to Android 17—the same as the regular Galaxy S23 flagships that debuted in February.

As of this writing, the Android 14-based One UI 6.0 update for the Galaxy S23 FE appears limited to Exynos-powered models in select international markets. The new firmware build number for the phone is S711BXXU1BWK5. The Fan Edition handset should soon pick up the update globally, including in the US where it ships with a Snapdragon chip. The build number may vary but the changelog will remain the same.

Speaking of the changelog, One UI 6.0 brings plenty of changes to the Galaxy S23 FE and other eligible Samsung devices. The Korean firm has updated the system UI for a visual refresh. These include an enhanced Quick Settings layout and a revamped notification panel. The update also improves system animations and transitions for a smoother navigation experience.

Additionally, One UI 6.0 brings new camera features such as enhanced Auto FPS, a dedicated camera resolution button, shutter speed controls, and more. New photo and video editing tools, improved homescreen widgets, and the Bixby Text Call shortcut are some other notable changes. Watch out for the update with all these goodies and more on your Galaxy S23 FE in the coming days.

The Galaxy A54 5G is picking up the big update in the US

Alongside the Galaxy S23 FE, Samsung is pushing the Android 14-based One UI 6.0 update to the Galaxy A54 5G. The premium mid-range handset is picking up the big update in the US, specifically the carrier-locked variant on AT&T’s network (via SamMobile). The updated build number for the phone is A546USQU5BWK4. A wider rollout covering unlocked units in the US and international markets should follow soon.
