It was reported last week that One UI 8 has been deployed to Galaxy A16, but you may be wondering why it hasn’t landed on your phone yet. The company did roll out the new firmware to this entry-level phone, but it was pretty much stuck in South Korea for the past week. They just unlocked it internationally. Here’s a quick overview.
The One UI 8 has reached both the Galaxy A16 and M16, but we’ll only talk about the device that’s relevant to the Pakistani market, vis-à-vis Galaxy A16 (SM-A165F). Yes, that’s the model code we have in our region. The changelog in the update will reflect that when it arrives.
We first see this update in one of the Asian countries, which means the Pakistani market may be days away from receiving the One UI 8 for Galaxy A16. We’ve been told that the firmware version “A166PXXU5CYI8” can be seen with this update, and the size is just 2.2GB.
