Tab S8 Ultra & Android 13/One UI 5

[ToonTonic]

Hi all,

Well the title says it all really, have we had any news on this?

As a current flagship device, I would've hoped for some news on this beta software that's floating about.

I type this on my S21 Ultra, which indeed does have the latest beta software, I'm just surprised that the tablet isn't afforded the same luxury.

So, over to you, the community, any news?

Thank you all

Good day

Have you received the Android 12L / One UI 4.1.1 update? This is the key update for the Samsung S8 tablets at present and has been rolling out this month.

The development of Android 12L (for larger screens) has been following a parallel path to Android 12/13 (mainly phones). Understandably, Samsung has looked to use Android 12L for its flagship tablets. 

This article (https://www.sammobile.com/news/samsung-devices-eligible-for-upcoming-android-13-update/) suggests that we are on the list for Android 13/One UI 5. My guess is that phones will be the priority and we will receive it in a few month's time.

X900XXU2AVH2 is the update I'm on, which does have one UI 4.1.1

But of course it's not Android 13 with One UI 5.?

Is this something that is arriving in the near future for this device?

All things considered it's absolutely premium, and I'd hope it receives significantly better support than previous Samsung tablets I have owned.
