Samsung has already released the March security update
Samsung may have yet to finish seeding the February SMR to all eligible Galaxy smartphones and tablets but it has already released next month’s patch. After all, it has now become customary for the Korean behemoth to begin the rollout of a new SMR before the current month ends. The Galaxy S22 devices are the beneficiaries this time around. More devices should join the party in the coming days and weeks. We don’t yet have details of the March 2022 SMR. But as far as the February patch is concerned, it brings fixes for over 60 vulnerabilities, with the majority coming from Google. There are fixes for some Samsung-exclusive flaws as well. We will let you know about the content of the March SMR as soon as we have the information.
