Galaxy Note 10 and Note 10+ get May security update

- April 30, 2020

After releasing the May security patch for the Galaxy S20 series and the Galaxy Fold a day ago, Samsung is now bringing it to the Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy Note 10+. The Note 10 duo is receiving a new update in several European countries, including Germany, France, Romania, Italy, Greece, Poland, and Switzerland.

Only security fixes are included in the latest Galaxy Note 10 update

The update features firmware version N97xFXXS4CTD1 and doesn't have anything but the new security patch to offer. That's not surprising after the feature-packed update the Galaxy Note 10 and Note 10+ received just a couple of weeks back. That update brought many Galaxy S20 features — including new camera functionality — to the Note 10 and Note 10+ in addition to version 2.1 of One UI.

If you own a Galaxy Note 10 or Note 10+, you will get a notification once the update is available in your region. You can also manually download the update over the air by tapping Download and install in your phone's Settings » Software update menu. The latest firmware is also available for immediate download from our firmware archive.

Given Samsung's recent track record with security updates, we can expect it to release the May security patch for more Galaxy devices soon. We should also find out what security vulnerabilities are addressed in the May patch in a few days once Samsung publishes the relevant details on its security bulletin.
