Android 11 came out about three months ago, and that means it's finally time for Samsung to get its act together and start shipping the OS out. Samsung announced on its company blog that the Galaxy S20, S20+, and S20 Ultra would all start getting Android 11 right now, provided you're in "Korea, the US, and most markets in Europe."

A three-month delay on the latest Android release is on par with what Samsung did last year for Android 10, which, at the time, was a record pace for the company. Of course, Samsung's lineup is more than just the S20, and the company's official timeline has the Note20, Z Fold 2, and Z Flip waiting until January. Samsung's best-selling devices are all from the midrange "Galaxy A" line, and those are getting updated anywhere from March to June, so anywhere from six to nine months after Android 11's release.
