A second Galaxy smartphone participates in the Android 13 beta programme.
Samsung introduced the One UI 5 beta programme for the Galaxy S22 series at the beginning of August, based on Android 13. Since then, the Korean juggernaut has increased the number of its smartphones eligible for public testing, including the Galaxy S21 series and, shockingly, the budget-friendly Galaxy A52. Samsung’s 2020 flagship, the Galaxy S20 series, has now jumped on board.
In Samsung’s domestic market, the Galaxy S20 range is presently compatible with the One UI 5 beta. Given the company’s ambitious expansion of the software, it ought to be accessible in more nations sooner rather than later. According to SamMobile, Samsung is only allowing customers who want to test out the beta to register; the firmware is not currently accessible for download. But you should enrol right now since there are only a few spots available, and they generally go quickly.
The Galaxy S20 BTS edition is not eligible for the beta programme, even if the whole S20 series is. It is unclear why these phones can’t participate in the programme as they have the identical internal hardware as the standard version.
If you have a Galaxy S20 and reside in South Korea, use our installation instructions to install the One UI 5 beta on your Samsung device and sign up for the programme. Your data on the device doesn’t need to be backed up. However, your phone will be formatted if you opt to stop the software in the middle, which will result in data loss. Additionally, keep in mind that you are going to be installing beta software, so be prepared to encounter stability problems and other glitches.
Samsung’s quick testing tempo suggests One UI 5 is getting closer to being live. Following the Galaxy S22 series, other smartphones ought to be the next to receive the stable update. One UI 5 on the Galaxy S22, according to rumours, should be out in October, with other devices receiving the update in November.
