The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 series is finally moving to Android 11, and the rollout is now underway. According to a report from SamMobile, the update has reached the Galaxy Note 10, Note 10+ and Note 10+ 5G, bringing the latest software and a fresh set of features to these 2020 flagships.
What the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Android 11 update includes
The update is built on One UI 3.0, the same software Samsung began pushing to its flagship line in early December, starting with the Galaxy S20 series before expanding to other 2020 devices.
For the Galaxy Note 10 family, the new build adds several refinements to everyday use:
- Bubbles (conversation) for quicker access to ongoing chats
- Media control improvements
- Better permission management
- Organized notifications
Alongside these One UI 3.0 features, the update also ships with the December 2020 security patch.
Firmware versions
Samsung has assigned separate firmware builds to the 4G and 5G models. The details are below.
| Model | Firmware version |
|---|---|
| 4G variants | N97xFXXU6ETLL |
| 5G model | N976BXXU6ETLL |
Rollout timing and earlier delay
The update is currently reaching users in some European countries, and it is expected to roll out to global users over the coming days.
This launch follows an earlier setback. Samsung announced the One UI 3.0 beta, based on Android 11, at the launch of the Galaxy Note series in August. After the initial developer build, it was released to the Galaxy Note 10 and other devices, but the rollout had to be paused shortly afterward because of a major bug. With that issue resolved, the stable release is now arriving. For more on the company behind it, visit Samsung.
