Samsung is experiencing delays with the Android 15 update for Galaxy S24 and S23 users, who are eager for new features in AI, security, and privacy. A recent leak from Samsung’s Spanish website about the update was quickly retracted. Current leaks indicate that a beta version may be available this month for select models and regions, while a stable release is projected for early 2025 alongside the S25 Series launch. Users are downloading leaked system apps, which pose risks to device safety and personal data, leading Samsung to tighten restrictions on sideloading. Google is also removing thousands of apps from the Play Store for security reasons. Android 15 will include live threat detection powered by on-device AI, but until the update is available, risks remain high. Users are advised to avoid unofficial downloads while awaiting the official updates. Samsung is reportedly making progress on the update, with the build number changing from ZXKV to ZXKY, and more details are expected soon. The stable release will follow the Galaxy S25 series launch and will include One UI 7 for other devices like the Galaxy S23, Galaxy A55, and Galaxy Z Fold 6.
