Samsung One UI 5.1 update causing network and battery drain issues

A few days ago, we shared with you that technology giant Samsung has announced One UI 5.1 along with the S23 series at the Galaxy Unpacked event. A set of some old Samsung phones, including the Galaxy S22, Galaxy S21, Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Fold 4, were among the first to receive the update. On the one hand, users were quite happy with the company’s fast update schedule, but things didn’t go as expected. Samsung users have reported various issues related to the Samsung One UI 5.1 update. They face problems like battery drain, network problems and more.

Is the Samsung One UI 5.1 update unreliable?

It is a general fact that using up-to-date software is usually beneficial. The latest updates, features, security measures and other improvements help improve the user experience. However, the old devices and new software don’t seem to make a good duo. There may be a lack of harmony between the two as it leads to some issues. This is exactly what some Galaxy users are experiencing with One UI 5.1.

A Samsung Galaxy S22 user reported a very bad experience after installing One UI 5.1. He noted that the phone sometimes stutters during certain animations and also has a battery drain issue. Users are quite frustrated by these problems and the tech giant is also working hard on a solution. In the meantime, users have been advised to contact Samsung customer service for assistance in resolving any issues.

Some reports claim that certain features are no longer available to them. The notable thing here is that the ability to choose from different colors when setting a new wallpaper has also been removed. It has become a common problem for those who use this feature regularly as they now require manual selection of colors. In addition to all this mess, rapid battery depletion and related problems are causing headaches in people.

The good news is that the One UI team is already aware of the issue and is working to resolve it as soon as possible. Thus, affected users are encouraged to regularly check for updates to ensure that they have the most recent version installed. If you are one of the lucky users who failed to update their device, please wait a little longer for this problem to be resolved.
