CTOnews.com, February 4, according to reports from applications such as Inware and Treble Check, Samsung Galaxy S23 series does not support A / B seamless update mechanism.

CTOnews.com small class:

The goal of A / B system updates (also known as seamless updates) is to ensure that a system that can be properly started and used is retained on disk during wireless download (OTA) updates. This approach reduces the possibility that the equipment will not start after the update, which means that users will need to send the equipment to the repair and warranty center for replacement and brushing. Some other commercial-grade operating systems, such as ChromeOS, have also successfully applied the A / B update mechanism.

Google launched a seamless update mechanism in 2016, and although the update process is slower than regular updates, it does provide a security layer for the update process. The user has a failure during the update process and can also be restored through A / B partition.

One of the main reasons Samsung refuses to support the A / B seamless update mechanism is storage because it takes up extra storage space.

And Samsung's system takes up a lot of space. According to foreign technology media 9to5Google, Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra takes up more space than 50GB, while last year Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra took up more space than 30GB.
