Official and public release Androidu 13 with One UI 5.0 is the fastest Samsung has ever managed for a device Galaxy issue. The company has started its One UI 5.0 beta program for the series Galaxy S22 back in August and this week it was discontinued with the release of the sharp version. Although it has reached millions of owners of one of the company's best phones, it still needs more. 

Coincidentally, Samsung released One UI 5.0 on the same day that you Apple has scheduled the release of its operating systems, which of course includes iOS 16.1, iPadOS 16.1 and macOS Ventura. While for mobile systems these are only decimal updates adding a few bits and pieces, macOS Ventrura for the company's PCs is the major version.

Apple of course, it has the advantage that it tunes both software and hardware, and therefore releases its systems for all its devices that support the new systems at the same time, regardless of whether it is the latest model or the old one, for example 5 flight. Everyone has it, and it's something we'd like even from the biggest smartphone vendor, Samsung.

Limited testing 

It is understandable that One UI will not be debugged immediately with the release of a new version Androidu. At that moment, however, the carousel of testing could start immediately for all devices with planned support, but this is not happening. The tops of the portfolio come first, then it goes lower, although more historically than with regard to actuality. Why don't the beta tests of all this year's Аček run earlier, but it's our turn Galaxy S21? With the power that Samsung has, with the amount of staff it has, with beta programs to help it debug, it's surprising that it goes with the style of releasing a new system for the latest and greatest device and then gradually falling down the ladder deeper into the portfolio.

No line needed Galaxy S22 to drop somehow. It's at the top of the portfolio and it makes sense that Samsung starts with it, but take the paradox. You buy a newer one Galaxy From the Fold4, which is even more expensive, but you will wait significantly longer for the update. Now we don't know if it will be a week or a month, but it is the logic of the matter. Now you read everywhere how One UI 5.0 finally came out and what it brings, but for the most expensive and equipped model of the company, the update is not available and you just sit and wait.

If we're going to get excited about Samsung puzzles, something has to change 

Years after Samsung's first foldable phone hit the market, and with the company pushing foldable phones as the next "big thing" that should excite everyone, it's still disappointing with timely updates. Basically, even if you're using one of Samsung's best-selling, best-equipped, most expensive, and newest phones, you have to sit on your bum and be the envy of all owners Galaxy S22 and how they can enjoy some of the great features included in One UI 5.0 and you can't.

Samsung needs to change its software update strategy and start treating at least all flagships equally, regardless of sales, popularity or form factor. Be it regular security updates or major updates like Android 13/One UI 5.0, the company needs to step forward and ensure that everyone who pays for the flagship is treated equally. Of course, the owners of last year's and the year before last's jigsaws are also waiting for the news, and that's even longer than the owners of this year's, and it's bad.

Samsung has the means to do that. The Korean giant updates dozens of smartphones and tablets with security patches every month, so there's no reason to believe it doesn't have the manpower to devote itself to major updates and stop forcing all but owners of its latest flagship smartphone Galaxy With these big updates to wait.
