The latest firmware, as promised, brings over new software functionality that was first made available on Galaxy S20 phones. While the core UI remains the same as the last official firmware, this iteration brings with itself new functionality. Here’s a brief look:

One UI 2.1

Samsung, with this update, is bringing One UI 2.1 to Galaxy S10 and Note 10. One UI is the brand’s premiere skin that it ships on all its Android phones. With Android 10, One UI was upgraded to One UI 2.0. And after that, with the release of Galaxy S20, minor improvements were added and hence, One UI 2.1 was formed. It is now arriving for Galaxy S10 and Note 10 series phones.

New Camera and Gallery App Modes

Galaxy S20 launch event focused largely on Camera improvements. While the picture quality enhancement was primarily due to better hardware, there were various modes which could be replicated easily on older phones and that is exactly what the brand has done.

New modes coming to Galaxy S10 and Galaxy Note 10 include: Single Take, improved Night Mode, Night Hyperlapse, Pro Video mode, Quick Share, and Easy Share.

4K 60 FPS Video Recording

For the first time, front camera on both Galaxy S10 and Galaxy Note 10 will be able to record 4K video at 60 frames per second. Previously, 4K video was there but no option to record at 60fps. However, with the new One UI 2.1 firmware, that can be done!

This firmware update also carries with itself latest April 2020 security patch. Samsung has been pushing new security patches before Google which is amazing to see. Similarly, with the update, Galaxy S10 and Galaxy Note 10 phones will effectively run April 2020 security patch.
