Samsung has swiftly rolled out the December 2022 security update to most of its smartphones. However, some Galaxy phones haven’t been getting the same attention from the company. For example, the Galaxy A33 5G is getting the November 2022 security update a month late than the ideal timing.
The latest software update for the Galaxy A33 5G has been released in Europe. It carries firmware version A336BXXU4BVKB, and it is currently available in Slovenia. Other European countries should get it within the next few days. The November 2022 security patch included in this update fixes four dozen security vulnerabilities. The update also brings the Maintenance Mode that Samsung debuted a few months ago.
If you are a Galaxy A33 5G user in Europe, you can get the November 2022 security update anytime now. You can check for the new update by heading to Settings » Software update and tapping Download and install. You can also get the new firmware from our firmware database and flash it manually.
Samsung launched the Galaxy A33 5G alongside the Galaxy A53 5G and the Galaxy A73 5G earlier this year with Android 12 onboard. It received the Android 13-based One UI 5.0 update a few weeks ago, and it included the October 2022 security update.
