A big update is now hitting T-Mobile’s Galaxy S20, S20+, and S20 Ultra.

T-Mobile is now pushing the One UI 2.5 update to its Galaxy S20 series phones. Announced yesterday by Samsung, the update to One UI 2.5 brings several Galaxy Note 20 features to the Galaxy S20 devices.

Included in the update are new Pro Video features, like support for recording 8K video at 24fps and the ability to record footage in a 21:9 aspect ratio. You can also now control your phone’s microphone direction when recording audio so you can pick up specific sounds.

Improvements to the Samsung Notes app are included, too, like Audio Bookmark which can sync your written notes with audio recordings. You’re now able to import and write on PDF files in the app as well.

Samsung DeX will now let you connect your Galaxy S20 to a smart TV wirelessly, and DeX also supports using your S20 as a touchpad to control the second display with multi-finger gestures. Other notable improvements of One UI 2.5 include the ability to easily share a Wi-Fi password with nearby Galaxy devices that are in your contact list and an updated Reminder app that can now preset the time and location for upcoming tasks.

As you might expect from an update with all of those new features, these updates to One UI 2.5 are fairly sizable, coming in at around 1000MB. The Galaxy S20’s update is version G981USQU1BTHD, while the Galaxy S20+ is G986USQU1BTHD and the Galaxy S20 Ultra is G988USQU1BTHD.
