Every Samsung phone that will be updated to Android 17

The next major version of Android will arrive this summer, with several Pixel handsets set to receive Android 17 when it launches, including Pixel 6 models released in 2021. Google offers Android update guarantees ranging from five to seven years, which is why many older Android models will run the latest version of Android. But Google is not the only one willing to offer such guarantees.

Samsung offers between three and seven years of Android support, depending on the type of Android device. The newer and more expensive the phone, the more likely it is to be eligible for seven years of software support. This is because high-end devices have better hardware, including faster chips, more RAM, and more storage, than less expensive devices. The Galaxy S26 series, launched in late February 2026, is an example of devices that will receive seven years of updates, including Android 17. Devices launched in 2023, including the Galaxy S23 series, will also be upgraded to Android 17 in the future, but these handsets only come with four years of major Android versions.

Before we look at the full list of Samsung phones that will receive the Android 17 update, it’s important to understand the specifics of Samsung’s Android updates. The Korean giant will not release the Android 17 update at the same time as Google. Additionally, Samsung’s Android 17 builds won’t be available for all handsets at the same time. The Galaxy S26 series will likely receive the Android 17 update first. Owners of older models will only receive the update later. New Samsung phones released after Google’s Android 17 rollout will likely run Android 17 out of the box, starting with the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Flip 8.

Samsung releases Android updates as One UI updates. Android 17 will be called One UI 9, with the first beta announced in mid-May. That said, not all Samsung models eligible for the new software will benefit from the most advanced Android 17 features, like Gemini Intelligence, which requires high-end hardware that some of the flagship models on the following list can offer.

In the coming months, Samsung will roll out One UI 9 versions based on Android 17 for multiple generations of Galaxy S and Galaxy Z (Fold and Flip) which are still eligible for major Android versions. The following list includes flagship and premium phones sold since 2023 that are expected to receive Android 17:

• Galaxy S26 Ultra, Galaxy S26 Plus, Galaxy S26
• Galaxy S25 Ultra, Galaxy S25 Plus, Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25 Edge, Galaxy S25 FE
• Galaxy S24 Ultra, Galaxy S24 Plus, Galaxy S24, Galaxy S24 FE
• Galaxy S23 Ultra, Galaxy S23 Plus, Galaxy S23, Galaxy S23 FE
• Galaxy Z tri-fold
• Galaxy Z Fold 7, Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy Z Fold 5, Galaxy Z Fold special edition
• Galaxy Z Flip 7, Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, Galaxy Z Flip 6, Galaxy Z Flip 5

Samsung owners who purchased Galaxy A, Galaxy M, Galaxy F, and Galaxy As with the Galaxy S flagships, the newer phones should be the first to receive the updates, but it’s unclear exactly when that will happen as Samsung isn’t releasing a specific roadmap. Here are all the mid-range and entry-level Samsung phones eligible for Android 17:

• Galaxy A: A57 5G, A56 5G, A55 5G, A54 5G, A37 5G, A36 5G, A35 5G, A34 5G, A26 5G, A25 5G, A24, A17 5G, A17 4G, A16 5G, A16 4G, A15 5G, A15 4G, A07 5G, A07 4G, A06 5G
