Samsung Galaxy S21 series phones are currently testing the Android 13-based One UI 5.0 beta version in select countries. Despite this, Samsung has begun rolling out the Android 12-based One UI 4.1.1 update for Galaxy S21 in the US.
It’s worth noticing that only Verizon is releasing the Samsung Galaxy S21 One UI 4.1.1 update as it’s not letting the customers join the One UI 5.0 beta program. The update might also expand to other non-beta testers shortly.
