Samsung isn’t slowing down — it’s unleashing the One UI 7 update like a storm! Following the Galaxy Z Fold 4, Galaxy Z Flip 4, and Galaxy S23 FE, the Galaxy S22 series is the latest to join the party. The update has kicked off today in South Korea, and it won’t be long before more countries join in.
Galaxy S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra getting One UI 7 update
Owners of the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S22+, and Galaxy S22 Ultra in South Korea can now download the stable One UI 7 update based on Android 15. The new firmware carries the version ending in FYD9 and weighs about 4.4GB, though the size may vary slightly by model. Along with all the exciting One UI 7 features, the update also packs the April 2025 security patch, fixing over 60 vulnerabilities.
This release brings more than just security enhancements. With One UI 7, Samsung introduces a sleeker interface, smoother animations, a revamped widget experience, and overall faster system performance. It’s a meaningful upgrade that improves both the look and feel of your Galaxy device.
While the Galaxy S22 lineup doesn’t get the full suite of Galaxy AI features launched with the Galaxy S25 series, users still benefit from smarter functionality thanks to Android 15’s deeper integration with Google’s Gemini AI. There are also notable improvements to the Camera app, Samsung Health, and customization tools.
This is not the end of the road for the Galaxy S22 series — One UI 8 (based on Android 16) will arrive later this year as the final major update for these devices. But for now, One UI 7 should breathe fresh life into your 2022 flagship.
If you’re using a Galaxy S22, S22+, or S22 Ultra and live in South Korea, you can check for the update by navigating to Settings > Software update > Download and install. A wider rollout is on the horizon, so stay tuned!
