Their Flagship line of devices the S-Series

All of their devices where launched with latest build of android 11 with OneUI 3.1 It’s surprising to see Samsung push latest build on their device and Samsung also promised to give 3 years of major updates and 4 year of security updates for its Flagship series of devices.
Budget Series:
- Samsung Galaxy M02
- Samsung Galaxy M02s
These budget series of devices were launched in India and were targeted for budget centric users but they arrived with old OneUI 2.0 with android 10 on board which is not bad but android 11 should’ve been a better way to go, as hardly 1 to no major OS updates are provided in that price range. Let’s see what samsung does will it give android 11 update or not.

Can you please tell me when huawei gets a update to Android 11? My phone is a huawei p30 pro. Thanks ([email protected])
As per the information we have the update may arrive sooner but due legal disputes from Google its most likely android 10 with EMUI 11 it will be seen as android 11 but no new features of android 11 will be added as per the source. The layer what EMUI is developing is on android (Not Google’s Version) so likely it’s more EMUI 11.
