Motion is smoother and more natural than ever, with improved animations and haptic feedback for common interactions. And the interface responds to different screen sizes to provide the best experience on any device, whether it’s a phone, foldable, or tablet.

Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite Android 11 Update

Samsung Galaxy Note 10 Lite users can easily update their device to the version Android 11, by simply heading over to the Settings > Software update. If you’ve not received the OTA notification on your device, then try checking it manually.

If you’re in a haste and want to access the features of Android 11 based One UI 3.0 on your Galaxy Note 10 Lite, then you can also manually sideload the firmware on your device.

If you’re in a haste, then you update your device manually, using Frija tool, SamFirm tool, or SamMobile website. If you are using one of the tools then enter your model and country code and download the firmware. Once downloaded, you can flash the firmware using Odin Tool. Then flash the file to your device. If you want to do so, then I recommend you take a backup prior to diving into the process. That’s it.
