Samsung Continues to Support the Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge with Security Updates

The Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge was released back in April, 2015 and although the handsets were flagships at one point of time, they should by all means, become outdated models in 2019. However, that's not quite the situation at all in the real world because quite a large number of users in the US and around the world still use the two devices quite regularly. Perhaps in realization of that fact, Samsung is continuing to support the two devices by providing it with periodic security updates even four years later!

The Galaxy S6 and the S6 Edge are receiving firmware versions  G920FXXU6ESA1 and G925FXXU6ESA1 respectively in UAE and it contains the February patch from Google and Samsung. Personally, I love how far Samsung has come from its earlier days as far as providing support is concerned. In fact, SamMobile suggests that this could be an indication of Samsung's decision in favor of not removing its older smartphones completely from the update programs, but instead, continuing to update them on a quarterly basis.
