  • The Galaxy Z Fold 3, 4, and 5 have all started to roll out the August Security update.
  • So far it seems Samsung is focusing on the US, though it should come to other regions shortly.
  • The update includes a large number of important fixes, including one marked as critical.

The August security patch has already started arriving on the S24 series, S23 series, and even the Galaxy S20 FE. As first reported by SamMobile, now it’s the Galaxy Z Fold’s turn.

The update looks to have arrived in the US first and is currently rolling out to unlocked Fold 4 and 5 users under the build names F936U1UES6FXGJ and F946U1UES4CXG6, respectively. There are also reports of carrier-locked versions of the Fold 3 receiving the update, bearing the firmware build F926USQS7IXG6. Meanwhile, the Fold 6 is still stuck on either the June or July update for now, depending on your region.
