It is one of the most popular devices in the Samsung catalog. And it has everything to be a best seller. It is the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017, a device accessible to a large majority of pockets, but at the same time, equipped with good features that make it an object of desire for many.
As if this were not enough, Samsung has taken great care of the owners of the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017, offering them security updates on time, in addition to the corresponding data package to make the transition from Android 7 Nougat to Android 8 Oreo. Nothing is known, at the moment, about Android 9 Pie.
What we are clear about is that the December security update is already being deployed on the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017. So if you have this terminal in your pocket, chances are you will soon receive a notification pointing the way to the update. It is a security patch that is already available in some markets and that will soon arrive in our country.
December security update for the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017, ready
The December security patch has already reached some home computers, such as the Samsung Galaxy S9, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4, the Samsung Galaxy J5 2017 or the Samsung Xcover 4.
The fact is that the first to receive the December security patch on the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 have been the customers of the operator Telcel in Mexico. This has the code A520FXXU7CRK7, although it has also appeared in Canada as A520WVLU5CRL1. It is normal, in any case, that this code changes depending on the country in which this update is deployed.
The update will arrive on your device as a notification, so we recommend you stay tuned. Another viable option is to check the availability of the data package yourself, through Settings> Software update> Manual download.
If the update is operational, remember to be connected to a WiFi network so as not to waste data during the download. Also, make sure you have the Samsung Galaxy A5 2017 fully charged, making sure that it is (at least) at 50% of its capacity. Remember that in the case of Samsung, you can also schedule the update for the early morning, thus avoiding any inconvenience.
