Samsung Moves Galaxy A37 to Quarterly Security Updates

Overview

• Samsung shifted the Galaxy A37 from a monthly to a quarterly security‑update schedule in July 2026, four months after the phone launched.
• The A37 had not received the July 2026 security package at the time of reporting while older mid‑range models began getting that update in a staggered regional rollout.
• Samsung continues to promise six major Android upgrades and six years of security support for the A37, which keeps it eligible for One UI 9 (Android 17).
• Industry reporters say the move is unusually fast compared with Samsung’s typical practice of keeping new mid‑range phones on a monthly cadence for a longer period.
• Owners may see longer waits for patches because Samsung stages releases by region and model, so users should check Settings > Software update to confirm availability for their device.
