Motorola overtakes Samsung
With the release of Android 15 in late 2024, Motorola has taken a step ahead of Samsung, which typically leads the race to distribute new Android versions in markets like Brazil. This marks a significant achievement for Motorola, as its flagship and mid-range models are already beginning to receive the update.
In contrast, Samsung is expected to start rolling out Android 15 updates to its devices only in early 2025. The South Korean giant is finalizing One UI 7, its custom Android interface, which is still in the testing phase in select countries. One UI 7 promises a range of visual and functional enhancements, further refining the user experience on Samsung devices.
This earlier rollout by Motorola could give it a competitive edge, particularly among users who value timely software updates. Samsung, however, remains a strong contender with its reputation for delivering feature-rich updates and long-term support. As both manufacturers push their updates, users can look forward to new features and improvements in the coming months.
