Samsung is one of the fastest companies to release new Android updates. In addition, it does it more and more often in old mobiles, those that have already been on the market for several years, and were even mid-range or entry-level mobiles at the time. An example of this we have in the Samsung Galaxy J5 2017. The South Korean firm is beginning to roll out the Android 9 Pie update for this model, which has been with us for two years.
The update has begun its journey in Russia, although it is a matter of days or weeks before it does the same in the rest of the places where the device is marketed, including Spain. It also includes the August security patch to correct critical system vulnerabilities and bugs. If you have a Galaxy J5 2017, it is normal that in the next few days you will receive a pop-up message on the screen of the device advising you of the update. If not, you can check it yourself from the Settings> Software update> Download updates.
As we always recommend, avoid updating with an open, public WiFi connection. Wait until you get home to do it with your secure WiFi connection. Also avoid data. On the other hand, it is necessary that at the time of updating to Android 9 you have more than half the battery in the terminal. If you do not have enough autonomy, wait for the mobile to fully charge.
Android 9 Pie is not only going to provide the Samsung Galaxy J5 2017 with more stability and security. This version of the system comes with interesting new features, among which we can highlight an adaptive battery system, which learns from the use that is given to the equipment to save energy as much as possible. This version of the platform is more intuitive and intelligent than ever, something that is also evident in the automatic brightness function, which adjusts the brightness preferences according to the time of day and the use you are giving the mobile at that moment.
As we say, the update has started in Russia and will be available in the coming days in more countries and regions. Have you already updated? You can leave us your impressions in the comments section.
