Samsung is giving several Galaxy A series phones in Kenya a much-needed security refresh, with new Android patches now rolling out gradually to users across the country. The updates, which started landing in late June, bring improved stability and the latest security fixes to keep your device in top shape.
Here’s a breakdown of the A series models getting the latest updates, the first since receiving One UI 7 (except for the A56 that ships with Android 15 pre-installed):
Galaxy A56
- Firmware: A566BXXS4AYE5
- Security Patch: June 2025, running on One UI 7
Galaxy A55
- Firmware: A556EXXS8BYE1
- Security Patch: June 2025, running on One UI 7
Galaxy A54
- Firmware: A546EXXSDDYF1
- Security Patch: June 2025, running on One UI 7
Galaxy A53
- Firmware: A536EXXSFFYEA
- Security Patch: June 2025, running on One UI 7
Galaxy A15 4G
- Firmware: A155FXXU6CYE8
- Security Patch: May 2025, also based on One UI 7
While these updates don’t introduce any new features, they do strengthen your device’s defenses by fixing security loopholes and ironing out background bugs. It’s the kind of behind-the-scenes maintenance that keeps your phone running smoothly—quiet, but critical.
The rollout is happening in waves, so not everyone will get the update at once. If you haven’t received the notification yet, you can check manually by heading to Settings > Software update > Download and install.
So whether you’re team A56, you’re still enjoying the reliable A53 or even the budget A15 4G, now’s a good time to update and give your Galaxy the security it deserves.
