If you do not see this option

• You see About device instead of About phone Samsung says some models call it About device, which shows the Android version straight away, without a Software information page. Source: How to update the software on a Galaxy smartphone or tablet
• The Android version is a name, not a number Samsung says older versions had dessert names, such as Pie for Android 9 and Oreo for Android 8, but the phone always shows the number. Source: How to update the software on a Galaxy smartphone or tablet

If this does not work

• Software update says there is nothing new Samsung says updates arrive at different stages depending on your location and carrier. If none is offered, the phone already has the latest version for it. Older phones may not get the newest Android at all. Source: How to update the software on a Galaxy smartphone or tablet
• You want updates without checking Samsung says to tap the three dots on the Software update screen, Auto download, and choose Using Wi-Fi only. Updates can use a lot of data. Source: How to update the software on a Galaxy smartphone or tablet

About this guide

App requirements, support pages and guides like ours often depend on the One UI version, not just the Android version. Both are on one page.

Good to know

About phone also shows the serial number, IMEI and phone number. Do not share screenshots of that page without hiding them.

Updates arrive at different times depending on the country and carrier.

In short: Settings, About phone, Software information: One UI version and Android version.
