Samsung has made waves in the tech world this month with its official announcement of the rollout of One UI 5.1.1. This highly anticipated update is set to breathe new life into older foldable devices, starting with the Galaxy Z Fold4, which received it promptly.

This build, originally featured on the new Galaxy Z Fold5 and Z Flip5, comes with a host of additional features that promise to enhance user experiences.

Samsung has not forgotten about its previous foldable models, the Z Fold3 and Z Flip3, and has initiated the rollout of One UI 5.1.1 in Europe and Asia.
