The release schedule may slightly vary in different markets
Samsung published this Android 13 update roadmap for Galaxy devices specifically for the domestic market, i. e. South Korea. However, the global release schedule should not be too different from this. It could vary slightly but not much. You can expect a similar timeline in other markets too. As mentioned earlier, this roadmap doesn’t include some eligible Galaxy devices because they were not released in South Korea. We expect Samsung to release the roadmap for other markets in the coming days. You will find it on the Samsung Members app.
