Samsung is making strides in rolling out One UI 8.0 to a wider range of devices beyond just its flagship lineup. Recent reports suggest that the mid-range Galaxy A56 is among the first non-flagship phones to undergo testing for the Android 16 firmware update.
Early firmware builds for the Galaxy A56 have been spotted on Samsung's servers, indicating that development is well underway. This development marks a departure from past delays in software updates for mid-range devices.
With Android 16 nearing completion and Samsung's collaboration with Google in full swing, the company is aiming for a faster and more efficient rollout of the One UI 8 update. The Galaxy A56, despite not being part of Samsung's limited beta program, is showing promising signs of receiving the update sooner than expected.
