Galaxy A71 5G gets February 2024 security update
The new Galaxy A71 5G software update comes with firmware version A716BXXS9FXA1 and is now available in Saudi Arabia and UAE. It could expand to other countries and markets within the next few days. The new update has a relatively small download size since it only contains security patches. So, don’t expect to see any new features or performance improvements with the update. According to Samsung’s security bulletin, the February 2024 security update fixes 72 security vulnerabilities found in the previous software version.
