I just got it here in the US. The link doesn't show the new firmware yet, however.

I just got DUK1 this morning.

Meantime those of us with US LTE haven't seen an update in months...

LTE versions will always lag far behind because the code has to be checked against the mobile networks. I imagine that is a lot of additional red tape. We see the same thing with LTE vs. non-LTE tablets.

Got my update today. US non-LTE 46mm Classic. Update was a bit larger at 94.27 MB. Possibly related to Classic vs non-Classic?

I just got this update US BT.

So excited to wait for another 2 months to get another meh update! Yayy!

Update available for me, UK BT version.

Available in Germany. Bt non classic

Today In Portugal

Received DUK1 for the GW4C today in Greece

Today in Czech Rep.

anyone see any improvements of any sort?
(not quite sure the purpose of telling us i got mine today...)

Also here in NL (with German version of GW4 Classic)

The plot thickens:

The mystery update.

Available in Italy

Good for you - still nothing for me in the UK.
Hopefully this is like the Gear 2 (GOOD and BAD)
GOOD = Nothing major visually or apps, just bugs fixes, but battery life improvements to get to 5 days 24/7
BAD = If this is all it is, it's another Samsung software support dead a few months after launch.
Just been released in Australia this morning

New s3 apps for s2?

Samsung product page says a new spotify app, bmw app and more apps is working for s3.
But i cant find any of them for s2. Anyone nows if they will be released for s2?
For the deprecated S2 watch ? end of life
for the deprecated watch they released a new firmware.
Actually there are several new features according to the release note (see screenshots)
I was able to use some of them, but I could not find the downloadable watchfaces from S3.
Anybody know where we could find them ? (with what name ?)

Because we can all read that.
a search for that firmware version gives me no results, whereas mine was released sometime in july/august 2016. when did you receive yours? perhaps it's the same, just with different designations according to country.
hi,
I received this yesterday along with all of my Turkish friends. I guess that's not just for Turkey.
And it shouldn't be an old firmware because It has features uniq to S3.
S3 apps (Alti-Barometre , find my car etc.) new widgets, S3 watchfaces and games.
ok. i did read a little while ago that the s2 was going to get an update near the end of the year, with s3 features. i guess we just (continue to) play the waiting game now. thanks for the info.
some screenshots
thanks mrmrmrmr.
anyone else (country) received this update?

Kinda a meh update, didn't change much but I'm glad the notifications look better now.

I don't have the phone to test this update. But Samsung is really doing commendable job with updating so many of its phone lineup to let user taste different flavours of Android.
I know hasty decisions may lead to buggy software but I would say let us give Samsung a chance to improvise the taste of Android.
It's even beating the very maker of Android in delivering software updates.
Soooo... I got the update today... and I must say that this definitely feels better optimized than Android 12, there's still a little lag here and there when playing a game and then switching to something else (multitasking) however this definitely feels better, great job!
How's the ui?lagging?
In the US, no update yet.
Stil laggy?
Might be slightly less laggy but I wiped it after the update. But still not great.

I went into Wear and checked for updates and it came right up. That was about an hour and a half ago.
Dumb question. My watch is LTE but I'm only connected via Bluetooth for now. This is not for my phone, correct?

One small enhancement that I noticed is that you don't have to navigate to the last page in order to "Close All" running apps. There is a small "Close All" bubble on the initial page.
Rec'd in Australia
Got it in eastern US.
I received it yesterday for my watch 4 classic
Mine didn't notify me until today. Just told it to install. Didn't seem to break anything (but haven't used it yet). It did the typical restart into the loading firmware screen (gears), rebooted, startup stuff/etc. After that, the "Galaxy Wearable" app on the phone asked for an update. So I approved that. Everything still seemed normal.
And then, when I woke the watch up again to play with it, it popped up "Updating Watch" and "copying update". A second update??? Waited for the download. Then it asked about updating now or overnight, I told it go ahead, and it went through the whole thing again??? Reboot, gears, progress indicator, reboot, startup. I have never seen that behavior before.
Maybe your update fail...
Check if you are really on new "numbers"...
*#1234#
Or look into About Watch...
Best Regards
It really must have been two.... looks like I am on an even newer version than what is listed here. Now on R890XXU1GVK7

Question No more Watch 4 updates?

Last one I had was in February.
Guess no more offical updates?
I'm wondering if it's because watch 6 should be coming out soon. I'm sure there may be more updates, has there been anything official from Samsung about updates and how watch 4 is supported?
Okay, found an answer:
Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 series is now getting a minor performance update
Find out about all the latest and older Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Watch 4 Classic updates detailed in one place.
www.androidauthority.com
TL;DR:
The Galaxy Watch 4 and Watch 4 Classic launched with Wear OS 3 and Samsung’s One UI Watch skin on top. Samsung confirmed that the series would receive up to four years of software support, suggesting that support for both devices would be extended through 2026.
Current stable version: Wear OS 3.5

My Watch 5 Pro is still on 2/28/2023 update, so no need just yet to assume Watch 4 is no longer supported.
They are not finished with new Watchface or new colors... or not enough Bugs...
I saw GWD6 under Construction...
A B C D... from this month...
IMHO same action for GW5...
Only as info.
