Samsung has so far updated the Galaxy S20 series to the latest version of One UI, while other devices like the Samsung Galaxy Note20, Galaxy Note20 Ultra, and the Galaxy Z Fold2 and Galaxy Z Flip will also get the update.

While the Galaxy Fold already has Android 11 based One UI with many changes from the previous version, the new update to version 3.1 adds several new features such as an improved Single Take Mode, the new Object Eraser from the Galaxy S21 that can remove unwanted passersby or objects with a tap.
