Samsung is actively working to roll out the One UI 6.1.1 update for all eligible Galaxy devices. In the meantime, the company hasn’t overlooked the Samsung Galaxy XCover 5, which is now receiving the One UI 6.1 update. Though this major update was delayed, users of this rugged smartphone can finally take advantage of several new features.
Right now, the One UI 6.1 update for Samsung Galaxy XCover 5 is available in South Korea and it may take a few days or weeks to reach other countries. Users can identify this update by the build number G525NKXUAEXI1.
One UI 6.1 update introduces features for photo and video management, including AI editing suggestions and image copying. Users get new lock screen widgets, customizable alarm alerts, and sticker support in the Calendar app.
