S25 Ultra Firmware Question

[Stuntrider90]

My Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra 5G I traded in had Samsung and Google Play Store firmware updates up to January, 2025.

On the new S25 Ultra both firmware are from 2024. Anyone else's phone show the same? You think with this being the new flagship device they would have 2025 firmware updates out of the box!

Thanks everyone who responds.

We're two months into 2025. Your phone was probably boxed and put on a ship three to four months ago, when it arrived it sat in a US warehouse waiting customs clearance, then was probably moved via truck to a shipping warehouse where it sat waiting for you to order, then was shipped to you from the US shipper for a 2-3 day delivery.

Anyone else notice that the S25 UI7 has the December security update. While the 7.0 Beta has the January security update.
