Galaxy A51 5G, A71 5G, M30s and M31s receive Android 11 update with One UI 3.0

Samsung has set a good pace for upgrading its flagship smartphones to Android 11 and now, after a brief beta that started in December, the update has expanded to reach several of the company’s mid-range phones. The updates are happening long before the roadmap Samsung shared in December, and are now starting to arrive on the Galaxy A51 5G, A71 5G, M30s and M31s.

The M30s update weighs about 2 GB and has only been located in India until now. In addition to bringing all the sophisticated new features of Android 11, Samsung’s feature-rich One UI has been further refined and enhanced. In the changelog, I noticed that Smart View no longer supports Google Cast, which means that you can’t share your screen with a Chromecast or Android TV device. I rarely use this feature, but it was still useful and something I will miss. It also means that the wireless DeX will not be compatible with these devices, which is even more unfortunate.

In addition to updates for the A51 5G and A71 5G, we are receiving advance availability reports for the M31s, although so far only limited to Russia and Ukraine.
