OneUi 8

[Jonathern]

So, been reading online about OneUi 8 and which devices will be sorted as I recall the S21 series wouldn't be receiving it. I see now on some official Samsung sites as well as Reddit that the S21 FE will be receiving it...

Does this mean only that variant or all S21 model versions?

I also saw an article that said the S21 series will not be getting the update. Did not see anything about the S21 FE

[Jonathern]

Basically from Google but there is a few sites that say the same

Yeah, the FE will get it. The rest🙅

Reason: FE variants get released later than the regulars, so it came out with a later OS upgrade. Probably won't get One UI 9 though

Yeah read that but I mean cool came out with Android 12 where the others had 11 but well same specs phone essentially hardware wise so it's strange. If I were Samsung I'd allow the other S21's also the same privilege considering oneui 7's issues and for many the phone breaking bugs they've been having and if not then revamp 7 to be more optimised and work out all the bugs and be battery friendly.
