Google's Android 15 update includes a new live threat detection feature that uses on-device AI to flag risky app behavior or permission abuse. However, Samsung devices do not yet have this update, and it is unclear whether it will be included in Samsung's One UI 7 deployment of Google's new software. Users are advised to resist the temptation to download unofficial updates and wait for the official ones instead.
Key takeaways:
- Samsung Galaxy S24 and S23 owners are waiting for the delayed Android 15 update, which includes Google’s and Samsung’s latest AI innovations and security and privacy upgrades.
- Leaked system apps of the update have surfaced on the internet and users are downloading them, despite the potential risks to their devices and data.
- Google's new live threat detection in Android 15 uses on-device AI to flag risky app behavior or permission abuse on the phone itself, but Samsung devices do not yet have this update.
- Users are advised to resist the temptation of downloading these leaked updates and wait for the official ones, even if they have an S24 or S23 and know they'll get the One UI 7 update and maybe the beta as well, depending on where they live.
