Shops in Belgium are stupid in general, The Phone House is the only one that has more information on the right now.
Shops that have them from next week import them from The Netherlands/Germany/France/UK. The Belgian customization with pre-installed Belgian apps will not be available before April 2.
Cheapest in Belgium with availability starting next week will be www.gsmwijzer.be.
just pre-ordered one from SONY store in Hong Kong. Sales said release date would be 7-8 March for the black model and mid-to-late Mar for the white one. For my purchase (of the white model), the collection date is "after 19 Mar".

I have the s6 edge SM-G925I bought it from Saudi Arabia. I live in Egypt. I received the 5.1.1 update 2 months later from its release date. And now the update that brings the s6 edge plus features to us is out from 1 September and i still haven't received it. If you please i need any solution to receive the updates on time it is really frustrating. Thanks in advance fellows. Also my play store is up to date but the interface of the store is still like the old one
Hi,
Got my mate 20 pro with October security update installed in mid December. However, haven't yet received any further update
Is there any way to update to the latest update without using FH method? OR just wait for the update to be available?
Currently residing in South Africa, have tried connecting to different countries via VPN and then tried searching for an update but have been unlucky!
Any help will be very much appreciated. Thanks
RG
Try asking Huawei. They responded to my question via email in 2 business days.
Indian version is still on October security patch
You are lucky us optus customers are still on 9.0.0.122 and nothing in sight because it takes optus 6 months to test it....slow company.

I got M20 Pro from Singapore, When I landed in India for my holidays I got the latest .171 update.
You aren't missing much,
post-update-craze-phase will last for a week. I am on 171 and, may be ,there are couple of improvements in few departments but you will hardly notice the difference.
but don't make the mistake of letting FunkyHuawei monetize out of your lack of patience. Version 171 has enabled option to unlock OEM. Also I would not risk rooting a Chinese phone.
Thanks guys, I'm currently happy with the device, just want an update that fixes selfie processing, rest all good
So glad to know that I'm not missing much in terms of an update..
Thanks again.

I'm just waiting for an update to see if it fixed the messaging notification and Google maps, also I'm having an issue with a few apps occasionally not loading like opinion rewards, apkmirror, auspost, music I have to clear cache, optimise battery, use phone manager to optimise memory and sometimes even reboot to get the apps to load correctly.

Yes its worst update cycle in India.
When Samsung Note 9 got 1st January 2019 security update, mate 20 pro in India is still with october update.
We need to complain together with huawei.
The worst part is my brothers Honor View 10 of a year and half back device got November security update when 3 to 4 times higher price flagship is with October security update.
Flagship value in India for huawei is NIL it seems
Report to @huaweiindia @huaweiMobile on twitter.
I have a tab s7+ SM-T970, bought directly of Samsung in the Netherlands, I still haven't received the november update. Are there more people who haven't received the update yet?
In my opinion, the October update is the last one that was released...
I hope you don't mean that Samsung already stopped the support for this tablet

No, Galaxy Tabs are being updated every quarter AFAIK. The next update is to be expected probably in January/February, we might already get then the A12 update with OneUi 4.0
Until October I got every month an security update, it would be very disapointing for me if they already after 1 year went to quarterly updates for their flagship (and expensive) tablets
T975XXU2BUK6 + T975OXM2BUK6 november uptade only available for United Arab Emirates (Why? I don't know) for T975. T970 haven't got november update(according to samfrew). Sometimes Samsung skipping updates.

Just got it today. It's about 192MB.
My S23 Ultra (European EUX OXM) hasn't been updated with the February 2023 Security Patch Level. I'm on S918BXXU1AWA6.
Though, I recently updated my S21 Ultra (AUT) and strangely it's more updated than my S23 Ultra .
2023-02-15 | 12:30 (CET)
EDIT: Added a poll in order see when the February Patch will be released.
No. You're not the only one
Sane for me too and my wife's 23+
they probably will releases an update before/on the official launch day (Friday 17th)

Just install this apk [main components]
Main components 2023-02-01 S+, from apkmirror. Till this morning i had also only the januari update, now i am on the feb one.
After installing apk, force stop of Play store apk, Play Services apk, and delete both cache, then reboot. You should have the feb one.

I think you do not know, but there is quite major difference between google play and security patch.
Yeah I think it'll be tomorrow ah about 9ish, that's what happened last year anyway
Anyway, incredible that this device is so good with pre release firmware.
Imagine if with time they will further improve camera and battery life

You are right, my mistake
Samsung is a lot better with updates. The only reason you wouldn't get an update on time is if there's a bad bug that requires fixing and the update got pulled. Also South Korea obviously gets updates first followed by Europe. USA gets updates anywhere from 3-5 days to 1-2 weeks after Europe does. From my experience on previous Galaxy's it was always about 1 week after updates went out in Europe for my USA Galaxy to get updated.

I wish I could agree, but where I am, the security updates have been sporadic at best, last one in S21ULTRA was the January sec patch delivered February 21. More often than not in 2022 two security updates were delivered at the same time, almost 3 months later than the Pixel.
Oh I was confused glad I'm not the only one.

where are you from? I guess it also depends on your country since there may be special circumstances, specific carriers or government approval, ect. that is delaying your update since once Samsung sends out updates in S. Korea their should be no reason why you are not getting the update unless your country or your specific carrier is holding it back. It used to be really bad here in the USA but the last 3 years I have seen a huge improvement in the update schedule for Samsung devices.
my s23 ultra security patch Jan 2023.
Galaxy Note 20 Ultra 5G security patch Feb 2023.
no day one patch so far with the security patch for february
I think they decided the phone is perfect already, **** the updates
Yeah, just checked for new OTA software updates.
Also checked on Sammobile Firmware.
No luck
