Title: Samsung Internet: your monthly security patch never reaches it
Post by: Redaktion on August 21, 2026, 10:00:34

And which Chromium base it builds on there is something Samsung has not published for Android in more than two years. What researchers found on a Galaxy S25, and how to check which build is running on your phone.

Can't stand Samsung phones, every week a useless pop up screen asking you to download another useless update. The phone is so full of their bloatware that it needs to force all these updates on to you.

Sounds like they're coming from a malware you downloaded yourself rather than those things that people use that term as a buzzword.

What a weird article. Ofc phone OS updates don't include browser updates. All phones ship with app updates enabled by default.
