Samsung Galaxy A7 Lite receiving the Android 14 update in the US

Samsung's budget Galaxy A7 Lite received its Android 14 update in January. Usually, these big updates take time to spread around the world, but Galaxy A7 Lite owners in the US had to wait over two months for Android 14.

Launched in South Korea, the Galaxy A7 Lite Android 14 the rollout has finally reached the United States, but there's a problem. At this time, only carrier-locked LTE models in the United States are eligible for the Android 14 update, SamMobile reports.

Just like the Galaxy Tab A9+, the Galaxy A7 Lite is also receiving the December 2023 security patch. With Android 14 (firmware version T227USQU8DXB4), the Galaxy Tab A7 Lite also receives an upgrade to One UI 6.0.

If you live in the United States and have a carrier-locked LTE Galaxy A7 Lite tablet, you may want to check if the update is available for you by visiting Settings/Software Update/Download and Install.

We expect the availability of the update to expand to all Galaxy A7 Lite models very soon, so be on the lookout for a notification if your tablet is not yet eligible for the software upgrade.
