THREE popular Samsung devices will no longer receive new Android updates, bringing them one step closer towards retirement.
The Korean smartphone giant offers devices four years worth of big software upgrades, which have recently included blockbuster AI features.
But Samsung will finally be withdrawing software support for three devices, leaving millions without new feature updates.
The models recently received the One UI 6.1 update - also known as Android 14.1.
And it will be their last.

The devices affected are as follows:
- Galaxy A52
- Galaxy A52 5G
- Galaxy A52s
If you own one of these devices, you may have noticed a lack of sparkly AI features enjoyed by other Samsung handsets with One UI 6.1.
The devices had been excluded from the AI features, unveiled during the Galaxy S24 launch earlier this year, because the devices are too old.
Samsung's updates also include security patches for vulnerabilities that have been discovered, which stops phones succumbing to hacking.
The good news is, the A52 lineup will continue to receive security updates for at least another year, according to SamMobile.
Security updates will continue to roll out to these devices every three months until sometime in 2025.
