Samsung Galaxy S25 Makes Software Updates Seamless

Samsung Galaxy S25 series is almost confirmed to debut Seamless Updates. Years after avoiding this iconic feature, the company is all set to launch it with the upcoming phones. It will follow the initial yet silent release on the Galaxy A55.

Leaked files from the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra confirmed the inclusion of Seamless Updates. AndroidAuthority reveals that the entire lineup will be equipped with this futuristic software update solution onboard.

Technically, Seamless Updates is an A/B Partition solution in Android. It is a core-level configuration that can’t be applied through software. Samsung seems to have experimented with the feature with the launch of the Galaxy A55.

With A/B Partition, a new software update installs in the background. It allows the phone to function without any interruptions. Once the installation is done, the user just needs to restart the phone to get the software installed.

This process significantly reduces the downtime, making it a task of seconds. It is also secure from the legacy method as a software failure doesn’t corrupt the system firmware due to temporary installation in the secondary partition.

Interestingly, Google introduced Seamless Updates with Android Nougat 7.1. The company has been pushing Android OEMs to adopt A/B Partition functionality. Though a bit late Samsung is finally adopting the useful software feature.

Apart from Seamless Updates, Samsung’s upcoming S25 Ultra is confirmed to have a new 50MP ultrawide camera. It would be an ISOCELL JN3 sensor to offer an elevated photography experience for group and landscape photography.
