Samsung updates Galaxy Z Flip with June 2020 security patch

Samsung is on an upgrade spree this week for its devices. After the Galaxy S20 and S10 series, now it’s time for Galaxy Z Flip to get new update. The update primarily offers June 2020 security improvements and is rolling out to the global models right now.


The update comes with firmware build F700FTBS1ATE3. The over the air (OTA) update should be headed to units anytime now. The firmware update is sized at 203MB. This suggest the update fixes any possible security issues with the software on the phone.


The company is not known for being proactive with regular and quick updates. Which is why it’s refreshing to see them change the trend, especially for its high-end foldable device. To recall, the 4G version of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip foldable phone was launched in India with a price label of Rs 1.10 lakh. It packs a Snapdragon 855+ SoC, 8GB RAM, and 256GB UFS 3.0 storage. It comes with a 12-megapixel camera on the outside and a 10-megapixel camera on the inside, placed inside a hole-punch cutout.
