My watch 7 ultra is still on November 1st security patch level. My s25 ultra is on October 1st security patch level on Google play store and I'm still waiting for March security level update. It would be awesome to get timely updates from Samsung, Google and appropriate mobile operators. Updates shouldn't be taking so long when every vulnerability are exploited by people trying to steal our information. Please do a better job and provide updates on schedule

The Google update is by Google, not Samsung. The monthly security patch and updates are rolled out by carriers, not Samsung. Typically (it used to be the opposite), unlocked devices get the monthly updates last.  In the past year or so, if getting updates on my S22/21, they most times did not come across any earlier than the 20th of the month. Until about over a year ago or longer, I saw updates many times by the 15th or even before, but that has changed AFAIK.

Right, so the why post this in a Samsung help community since Samsung does not control the updates when ending with "Please do a better job and provide updates on schedule". Should not that be discussed on Google and the carrier provider forums as Samsung has nothing to do with the "Updates shouldn't be taking so long..." mentioned in the OP? I am being earnest here.

Last I checked i purchased my phone and my watch from Samsung, not Google or a service provider, so why can't I post it here?

Thank you for saying this! I bought mine unlocked and direct from Samsung as well. To many Samsung fan boys/girls on her ready to defend and say it's not Samsungs issue without reading and understanding the issue.
