The Realme GT is also considered with Android 12. The update brings new game and camera features as well as a new design of the user interface. For the time being, the update will only be rolled out to selected users.
Nokia
Nokia makes Android 12 available to the G50. The update is currently only available in Finland. With the new firmware you should get the new “Material You” theme. With this, menus, widgets and the notification bar are adapted to the color scheme of your background image.
Samsung
Samsung is donating the update to Android 12 for the first time to mid-range cell phones such as the Galaxy A72 and Galaxy Note 10 Lite. So far, only high-end devices have received the new operating system. You can also look forward to the new One UI 4.0 user interface.
The Galaxy Fold and the rest of the Galaxy Note 10 series smartphones also receive Android 12. The update is available in France for the first mobile phone, while the update is currently only available in Switzerland for the Note 10 series phablets.

Google
Google is distributing a new anti-spam feature for pixel phones. This should automatically filter out spam calls. The “verified calls” feature is also included in the new firmware. For example, if a verified company calls you, you can see the caller ID, your number and the reason for the call on the display.
In addition, almost all Pixel devices receive a first major bug fix update. Only the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro will get the patch later. The update is intended to fix annoying errors such as the disconnection on Wi-Fi.
