Galaxy S25 series supports seamless update
Seamless update In this process, your phone does not need to be completely shut down or restarted to update its software. The phone can continue to be used during the process. Seamless Updates is technically an A/B Partition solution in Android. A new software update is being installed in the background with A/B Partition. This ensures that the phone works without any interruptions. Once the installation is complete, the user simply needs to restart the phone to install the software.
So, why did Samsung bring uninterrupted update support late? The biggest problem with A/B updates in Android 7.1; This was because it required significantly more space than non-A/B updates. It required twice as much space for system updates. This means less space for applications and files. Google solved this problem by introducing the virtual A/B system with Android 11. The virtual A/B scheme solves the biggest problem with the A/B scheme by eliminating the need for partition duplication. It does take up some space in the user data section for snapshots but compression helps minimize this. Over time, Google has brought the space requirements of virtual A/B to almost the same level as non-A/B. This led manufacturers to deprecate non-A/B updates in Android 15.
Despite these improvements, Samsung did not use the seamless update system on most of its phones. The only exception was last year’s Galaxy A55. With the new Galaxy S25 series, the feature has come to high-end devices, it looks like we will see it on more devices in the future.
