Samsung has commenced the rollout of its One UI 7 update, based on Android 15, for the Galaxy Tab S9 series, encompassing the Galaxy Tab S9, Tab S9+, and Tab S9 Ultra models. This update introduces the April 2025 security patch and carries a firmware version ending in CYD9. Initially, the update is available in South Korea, with plans for a broader global release in the near future.
A notable enhancement in this update is the integration of the Galaxy AI Key function. This feature, previously exclusive to newer models, allows users to summon their preferred virtual assistant via a dedicated button on compatible accessories. Samsung’s promotional materials confirm that the Galaxy Tab S9 and Tab S9 FE series will support the Galaxy AI Key with the One UI 7.0 update or later versions. This integration is particularly beneficial for users who have invested in Samsung’s Cover Keyboard accessories, as it ensures seamless compatibility and enhanced functionality.
The One UI 7 update is part of Samsung’s commitment to providing extended software support for its devices. The Galaxy Tab S9 series is slated to receive four generations of Android OS updates and five years of security updates from its release date. This policy underscores Samsung’s dedication to device longevity and user satisfaction.
While the initial rollout is limited to South Korea, Samsung has a history of expanding updates to other regions in a timely manner. Users in other countries can anticipate receiving the One UI 7 update in the coming weeks, bringing with it the latest Android features and security enhancements.
