Update, February 27, 2020 (4:20AM ET): The Galaxy Note 10 and Note 10 Plus are getting a new update, their first after they were updated to One UI 2.0 based on Android 10. According to SamMobile, the update is currently rolling out in Malaysia and Germany, with a wider rollout expected to follow.

The new update carries the software version N97xFXXU2BTB5 and brings improvements to facial recognition and navigation gestures on the Note 10 series. Samsung, however, hasn't really specified the nature of these improvements.

There's no March security patch in this update, but that should land soon enough since the Galaxy S20 Ultra has already received it.

You can manually check for the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 update on your own device by heading to Settings > Software update > Download and install.

Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy Note 10 Plus update

  • Current stable version: Android 10
  • When will the Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy Note 10 Plus get Android 11? December 2020 (estimated)

The Galaxy Note 10 line launched in August 2019 with the then-latest version of Android, Android 9 Pie. Like most Android flagships, these are expected to receive at least two major updates in their lifetimes.

The first confirmed major update is Android 10, which publicly launched toward the beginning of September. Soon after, Samsung began a beta program for its flagships, including the Note 10 line. This beta program lasted for a few months before Samsung started rolling out Android 10 in a stable form.

At this point, nearly every device in the Samsung Galaxy Note 10 family, including the Star Wars model and the Sprint version, should have the Android 10 update. Any stragglers should get it by the end of January 2020. That update will include One UI 2.0, based on Android 10.

Samsung also beat Google to the punch with the January 2020 security patch, rolling it out to the Note 10 before Google rolled it out to the Pixel 4. Samsung's update game has been on point lately, and the Note 10 is its sixth device to get the latest security patch. 

According to a few Reddit posts, Canadian Galaxy Note 10 devices began receiving the latest Android 10-powered One UI 2.0 update January 6. Devices on carriers Telus, Bell, Rogers, and Sasktel have received the update thus far, and we expect the other carriers should roll out the update soon.

Most recently, a tipster over at Android Police let the world know Samsung began pushing out the latest stable Android 10 update to unlocked Galaxy Note 10 Plus 5G devices in the UK January 8. That same day, we also saw the update roll out to Indonesian variants of the Note 10 series thanks to a post on Reddit

Android 10 also landed on Galaxy Note 10 devices in Australia, Hong Kong, Taiwan, and Qatar (h/t: Android Police) in January 2020.
