Samsung’s One UI 4 rollout is moving ahead at a swift pace. The company has expanded the new update to a few more budget phones, including the Galaxy M31, Galaxy A32, and Galaxy A71. Now, the new software is making its way to one more phone: the Galaxy M51.

Samsung has begun rolling out the stable One UI 4.1 update based on Android 12 to the Galaxy M51. The update arrives with the build number M515FXXU4DVD1 and is currently rolling out to the SM-M515F variant. Besides the usual Android 12 jump, the build also packs March 2022 security patches. So far, the rollout has gone live in Russia only, but it’s only a matter of time before the new update makes its way to other markets.
