Samsung Galaxy XCover 7 Gets One UI 8.5 Update in Southeast Asia

Samsung's One UI 8.5 rollout just got a bit broader. The Galaxy XCover 7, Samsung's rugged mid-range handset, is now receiving the stable One UI 8.5 update in Malaysia, the Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam.

The XCover 7 was not part of the 44 Samsung devices officially confirmed to receive One UI 8.5 when Samsung announced the rollout schedule. It was one of 18 devices that many expected to get the update but had no official confirmation. Samsung has now quietly resolved that uncertainty by simply pushing the firmware out.
