In a major surprise, Samsung has started rolling out the Android 10 update for the Galaxy M20 and M30 models in India. Both these devices were supposed to receive the update in January, but, as is often the case, the update is rolling out earlier than promised. So far, the company has released the Android 10 stable update only for the Galaxy S10 lineup, making the M20 and the M30 the first set of budget devices to receive the latest Android version.While some Galaxy flagship users might feel disappointed that their devices are yet to receive the same update, it’s encouraging to see Samsung release Android version updates to its budget devices so quickly. Currently, the update appears to be available only in India, but you can expect that to change soon. The release for the Galaxy M20 and M30 comes the version number M205FDDU3CSL4 and M305FDDU3CSL4, respectively. The update also brings the December 2019 security patch to both these devices.
Android 10 and One UI 2.0 are relatively minor updates, but there is still enough here to get excited. We will soon publish a post detailing the Android 10 experience on Galaxy budget and mid-range devices, so do remember to come back later.
