Samsung has been extensively testing Android 10 for its Galaxy S10 range over the last few weeks. Now, a new report claims that the company has silently pushed the rollout of Android 10 for the Galaxy S10, which appears to be the final build of the update. According to a report by SamMobile, users in Germany are included in the first phase of the rollout.

The rollout of the stable release with version 2.0 of One UI includes most of the new features available in Android 10. These include system-wide dark theme, new gesture-based navigation, as well as more granular location permissions. Besides, Samsung has also made subtle changes to its One UI skin by improving its Samsung apps, detailed battery usage graph, along with more ways to access one-handed mode.

The update labeled as G97**XXU3BSKO interestingly includes the December Security patch level, which is yet to arrive on Pixel devices. Besides, the update is merely 140MB in size for users already running Android 10 beta builds.

You can manually check for the update on any Galaxy S10e, S10, and S10+ if you live in Germany (and maybe elsewhere) by heading over to Settings > Software Update.

Not to mention, sources also indicate that the update is also rolling out for users currently using the stable version of Android 9 Pie. However, for non-beta users, the update is considerably bigger in size at about 2GB, though the update version number is the same. While Samsung is yet to officially announce Android 10 for its devices, but the rollout should continue with more waves and more markets getting the update.
