Samsung beats Google once again, rolls out November 2022 patch!
Samsung took just two months to deploy the Android 13 update on Galaxy S22 series after Google released the Stable version to Pixel devices.

Security patch updates are a necessary part of Android smartphones as the manufacturer manages to keep them secure against different kinds of vulnerabilities. Usually, Google rolls out newer security patches on the first Monday of the new month, while, Samsung is too fast in the rollout.

November 2022 patch:
Samsung included the November 2022 Android security patch in the second One UI 5.0 Beta update for the Galaxy Z Fold 4. While Google’s latest Pixel 7 smartphone lineup is still stuck on the October patch, Samsung has upgraded its Fold 4 foldable to the most up-to-date.

Earlier software update rollout is not just a common thing as it shows the advanced technologies and well-guided development team behind it. As the S22 series has just started to get One UI 5.0 update, the November 2022 patch seems just around the corner.
Google should boost SW development:
Google has a very low number of active Pixel smartphones across the world. Samsung, on the other hand, is the market leader with the highest number of Galaxy device shipments. The former needs notable improvements in the development of new software updates.
Samsung releases new security updates quite earlier than its rivals, almost, every month. The company has not yet detailed what changes the November patch brings as it will be shared next month, as soon as Google publishes the Android security bulletin.
Owning a Galaxy device lets you have rocking experiences that are not limited to early software updates. The One UI 5.0 is the most recent example of Samsung’s commitment to providing you with the best software experience. Let’s have a detailed idea at One UI 5.0 features and changes.
