The Galaxy S21 unit that is locked by the operator gets the G99xUSQSBGXF1 version of the firmware, while the unlocked unit gets the firmware with the G99xU1UESBGF1 version. Samsung also launched different versions in Asia and Europe.

Several countries on the two continents have received G99xBXXSBGXEC versions of the firmware, but it is not yet known which countries have received the update. To find out if your device has received an update, you can check it.

The method is quite easy, you just need to go to Settings, then search for the Software Update menu. If there is an up-to-date update that appears, you can click Download and Install.

Samsung said the latest security patch would include 22 Samsung Vulnerabilities and Exposure items (SVEs). Dozens of these items are added, "to increase the confidence of our customers in the security of Samsung Mobile devices."

The various items added include improvements to the improper input validation problem on the caminfo driver, improper access control on SmartManagerCN, improper caller verification on the SemClipboard, and much more.
