Released back last year, the Android 10-based One UI version 2.5 is the final major s/w update for the Galaxy Note 9 flagship and it will spend its remaining time on the One UI 2.5. Although it’s no longer eligible to get the Android 11, its successor Galaxy Note 10 is ready to receive the upcoming Android 12-based One UI 4.0 update early next year.

Apart from this, Samsung is continuously rolling out new security updates for this 2018 flagship every month.
