Samsung Galaxy S22 kicks off a big update in April with new features

After the Galaxy S23, the Galaxy S22 series has now also started its April update. It includes a hugephoto clipperFrom S23 to S22. But: not everyone can install it. April 10th Addendum: Now it looks like the update is out for everyone.

Galaxy S22 April 2023 update

Galaxy S22 Series April Update comes into place and kicks off. Early adopters can already install it, but many will still have to wait and see. Either way, it’s not a small update, so take your time as soon as possible.

An approximately 1.5GB update for firmware version S90xBXXU4CWCG is now available on many devices. This is a package for an update that does not contain a new version of Android or One UI. So the changelog mentions various points for improvement.

The first is – of course – the April security patch. This contains about 51 improvements to the Android operating system. Of the 23 fixes Samsung adds for itself, three are explicitly intended for the security of the Exynos chipset. In fact, it can also be found on the Galaxy S22 series. With this said, Samsung continues to work on closing the Exynos modem leak that surfaced a few weeks ago. However, it is not yet clear if this vulnerability has now been fully closed. We went into more detail on that earlier this week, in our description of the April Update.

New feature: photo scissors

Furthermore, the changelog for the update also mentions improvements in camera And Gallery mission. After installation, you can also use a function on the Galaxy S22 that was only available on the S23 until now: photo scissors. We couldn’t find an exact Dutch name for this feature — not even on the S23.

Be that as it may: get Gallery to an image or image that shows an object or person. Place your finger on an object or person for a moment, and let the phone do its thing. After a few seconds, only that object or person is selected and ready to be copied or saved separately. Objects clipped in this way are in the folder Cropped images.

More new camera functions, which we also expect in the Galaxy S22 series – such as Astro position in Hyper Camera mode, front camera support RAW expert This update has not been installed yet. Have you come across other new or improved widgets on the Galaxy S22, S22+, or Galaxy S22 Ultra? Let us know below!

installation and availability

Keep in mind that such a major update needs more time before everything is optimized again. In concrete terms: the power consumption after installation may be somewhat higher than what you are used to. If all goes well, this will return to normal after a few hours or days.

In principle, the April update is now available immediately on the Galaxy S22, S22+, and S22 Ultra. That is, the new firmware is on the Samsung servers, as well as the software Official changelog already available. And while we’re seeing people left and right who can actually get into it, that doesn’t seem to be the case for most of them yet. However, we assume that most people will be able to download it in the coming hours or days. April 10th Addendum: Yes, now the update is widely available in the Netherlands, Belgium and the rest of Europe.

You can wait until you receive the automatic notification. But you can always check availability manually via Settings -> Software update -> Download and install.
