✅ How to Check If Your Galaxy Phone Will Get Android 15
You don’t need to guess — Samsung has clear update rules. Here’s how to check:
1. Know Your Update Policy
Samsung’s phones fall under different update policies:
| Galaxy Series | Android OS Updates | Security Updates |
|---|---|---|
| S, Z (flagships) | 4–7 years (newer) | 5–7 years |
| A5x, A7x series | 4 OS updates | 5 years |
| A3x, A1x series | 2–3 OS updates | 3–4 years |
| M series | 2–3 OS updates | 3–4 years |
| F series (India-focused) | 2 OS updates | 2–3 years |
Samsung Galaxy A17 5G, for example, is part of the new wave with 4 years of OS + 5 years of security, meaning it will get Android 15.
2. Use Samsung’s Official Software Tools
-
Open Settings > Software update > Download and install
-
Go to Settings > About phone to check your model
-
Visit Samsung’s Members app for update notifications
-
Check for One UI 7 beta availability (available first on S and Z models)
