Samsung has officially announced the One UI 7 stable update, meaning the rollout will commence anytime from now, with the Galaxy S24 series first in line to receive the update. The Galaxy A55 will get the upgrade, but we do not know when. What we know is that the January 2025 security patch update is now available for the handset.

While the Galaxy A55 January 2025 security patch update focuses on resolving issues and optimizing performance, we believe it fortifies the device ahead of a seamless upgrade to Android 15 with One UI 7. If you are wondering, the device has not received a single major upgrade, making it eligible for the upcoming OS update.
Meanwhile, the latest release, version A556BXXS6AYA3, is rolling out in Europe. The update addresses over 20 security vulnerabilities, including five critical ones. We recommend installing the update when promoting it or manually checking it.
How to download the Galaxy A55 January 2025 security patch update
Samsung rarely sends a prompt notification for a new update. Most times, you have to visit the Settings>>Software update>>Download & install section to download a new update. You can do that now, irrespective of your region, as we believe more countries are getting the update.
