Samsung Galaxy S25 series may receive a new software update next month. Earlier, it was anticipated to bring key enhancements, but the development for the Galaxy S25 series appears to have dropped from the May 2025 release window.

As conveyed by Alfaturk, Samsung apparently delayed a major update for the Galaxy S25 series. A new firmware update is indeed incoming, but it might be limited to installing the latest May 2025 security patch to the system.

The latest build has drastically changed the bootloader and minor version. The recent build contains “S3” and “DA” replacing the previous “U2” and “DB”. This shift in version number indicates that the May release won’t be a significant one.

Earlier, it was rumored that the Galaxy S25’s May 2025 update may bring key enhancements. Improvements related to the camera (photography and videography) were being tested but pulled off due to unforeseen reasons.

The software update may still install newer versions of some stock apps. The system launcher and stock camera apps would still be updated. However, it depends on the remaining phase of testing as the rollout hasn’t yet started for users.
