The update reportedly carries version number S916BXXU3BWJM and is currently rolling out in Germany. A US and South Korean rollout should also follow soon.

The software is based on One UI 6 Beta 9, meaning Samsung hasnโ€™t changed much from the last beta it pushed out. If you were on the One UI 6 Beta program, the update should weigh around 350MB. For regular users, it should be much heavier, around 3GB.

Samsung has rigorously tested the update with as many as nine betas before this stable release. The update carries the October 2023 security patch, although we would have expected Samsung to push the November patch.

How to update to One UI 6

To update your Samsung Galaxy S23 or other Galaxy smartphone to One UI 6, follow these steps:

  • Ensure you have over 50% battery charge to avoid interrupting the update process.
  • You will also need a stable Wi-Fi or cellular connection to download this large update.
  • When ready, go to Settings > Software update > Download and install to check for an update.

Samsung is rolling out the update in stages. If the update is not immediately available to you, please check back later.
