Samsung starts rolling out Android 17, One UI 9 to Galaxy S26 in the US following delay

After a slight delay, Samsung is rolling out its Android 17-based One UI 9 update to Galaxy S26 owners in the US, though not to everyone just yet.

Samsung announced the rollout of One UI 9 as starting earlier this month, but the update failed to show up and, in some regions, Samsung even briefly confirmed a delay. While the exact speed bumps Samsung hit are unclear, the rollout appears to be commencing.

On Reddit, a handful of Galaxy S26 series owners in the US confirmed that One UI 9 has reached their devices. The roughly 4GB update is showing up for users on T-Mobile, but carrier rollouts are typically a sign that more devices are set to join the rollout soon. Oddly, unlocked devices do not appear to be getting the update just yet.

Sound off in the comments below if you have or have not received One UI 9 on your Galaxy S26 and include your carrier and what region you’re in.
