Sounds like S25 series is stuck for now. Strange, since Play system updates come straight from Google, as has already been mentioned.

Almost mid March 2025, no March Security Patch, and still on Google Play System version October 2024. Other phones receiving updates. What is going on with S25 series phones?

My guess is this is caused by the co-development of One UI 7.0 for the S25 vs the Beta for the S24.  They appear to be doing all of the work on One UI 7.0 in the beta, so that they can get this out as soon as possible, and when it releases then they can focus on the updates for the S25.  Again this is no where near official, and is just my guess on what is happening.

This whole One UI 7.0 delay debacle really has left the final bad taste in my mouth on Samsungs re-skinning of stock Android. It's been like this since the Galaxy S7 days. They promise faster turnaround time from stock android updates to their devices and the added delays, due to their intentionally added layers of complexity, has reared its head once again. It's even got me wanting to switch back to ios. At least there I know every device I get will have the latest updates on the same day as everyone else for years to come.

The difference here is that Apple does not rely on a 3rd party to create their OS so they can keep it quiet, so that no one starts chomping at the bit for it, and Apple can, and has, released their OS with device breaking bugs in it.

Texts on Samsung messages are also delayed, sometimes don't send at all. Read receipts work off and on. I refuse to use Google messages.

Don't do the February one. It **bleep** up my battery. Many people reporting this.
