We have almost reached the end of the third week of January, so it's about time that Samsung's 2017 flagship handsets got updated with this month's patch and thankfully, those updates are finally here. Firmware version G9500ZCU2AQL2 and G9550ZCU2AQL2 are rolling out for the Galaxy S8 and S8+ as you read this, but unfortunately, that's happening only in China right now. Nevertheless, it's definitely a sign that the January security updates are heading for the two flagship handsets from 2017 in all other regions soon.
Another of Samsung's high-end handsets is getting the same update and it's good news for our Indian fans because that's where it is rolling out for the recently released Galaxy A8+. The update itself is moderately sized at 220MB and carries the firmware version A730FXXU1ARA6.
Both the patches will carry all the fixes that the January patch from Google is supposed to bring, in addition to fixing 13 bugs in Samsung's own UI. Hurry up and download it as soon as you are prompted to by your device.

The Galaxy J1 Mini and the Galaxy J3 (2017) might have been Samsung's latest handsets to receive the January patch yesterday, but today, the Galaxy S6 Edge has shown up on top, albeit not in the US yet. It's good news for our readers in India though as the OEM has started sending out this month's security update via OTA for the 2015 flagship handset in the country. Good to see one of the flagships get the update as so far, it has only been the low-end and mid-range models that have received it. While some would complain, I feel that it's good to see a company not holding out security updates intentionally to make its users feel that they favor their costlier handsets, even when it comes to security.
If you happen to own a Galaxy S6 Edge in India, Bangladesh or Nepal, you should see firmware version G925IDVS3FRA1 make its way onto your handset very soon. Expect the update to take care of six critical risks and multiple low-mid risk problems in the Android OS powering the handset. It also includes few of Samsung's own patches (13 to be exact) for extra security.
