Galaxy S21
The South Korean tech giant introduced the Galaxy S21 smartphone lineup in early 2021 with Exynos 2100 and Snapdragon 888 processors for different markets. Out of the box, the device came pre-loaded with Android 11 and later upgraded to Android 12 OS.
At the Galaxy S22 series launch event, the company announced that the Galaxy S21 series will be getting four generations of major firmware upgrades. This means the Galaxy S21 will also get the Android 14 and Android 15 OS upgrades.
Android 14
We have already started hearing about the upcoming Android 14 operating system as Google apparently working on it internally. It’s expected that the Developer Preview of 14th Android may release in February, followed by Public Beta sometime in May next year.
