Samsung Galaxy S25 Series: April 2025 Update and Beyond
Samsung's Galaxy S25 series has just received its April 2025 update, initially rolling out in Korea before expanding to India and Australia. This significant update brings a range of improvements, including a fresh charging animation, enhanced media controls, and the crucial April 2025 security patch. Let's dive into the details and explore what makes the S25 and S25 Edge stand out.
What's New in the April 2025 Update?
The 762.27 MB update (firmware version S938BXXU2AYD9/ S938BOXM2AYD9/ S938BXXU2AYD9) introduces several notable features. A sleek new charging animation, previously seen in the One UI 7 Beta, enhances the user experience. More importantly, it adds much-requested Now Bar and Live Notification support for the media player. Now you can easily control music or videos directly from the notification panel or the Now Bar, a feature previously absent from some One UI 7 devices launched with that OS out of the box. The update also boosts overall system stability and, of course, includes the latest security patches.
