These Samsung Galaxy tablets are in their last year of software support

Samsung’s Galaxy Tab S9, S9+, S9 Ultra, S9 FE and S9 FE+ are due to receive their final major Android update in 2026: One UI 9, based on Android 17. This marks the end of their promised operating-system upgrades, although security updates are expected to continue for about two more years.

The S9 tablets launched in 2023 with Android 13 and were promised four major OS upgrades and five years of security patches, likely lasting until 2028. The 2022 Tab S8 range has already had its final major update and should receive security patches until February 2027; the 2023 Tab A9 models have also had their final OS update, with another year of security support. Samsung’s Tab S10 and newer models, including some budget A11 tablets, carry seven-year update commitments.
