This device has expired. Now what?

No more security updates will ever arrive for the Samsung Galaxy Gear S2 3G. If it's your daily phone, the safest move is to replace it — ideally with a model that stays supported for years. The old one still makes a fine offline camera, alarm clock or backup device.

The Samsung Galaxy Gear S2 3G in detail

How many years of updates does the Samsung Galaxy Gear S2 3G get?

Released in October 2015, the Samsung Galaxy Gear S2 3G received security patches until March 2018: 2 years and 5 months in total.

Among the 258 Samsung phones in our database, 24 were supported for less time and 231 for longer. The median is 4 years and 1 month.

Across all brands, the median for phones is 4 years.

Can I keep using the Samsung Galaxy Gear S2 3G?

Yes, it still works. But every security hole found after March 2018 stays open. For daily use with banking, messaging and passwords, a supported device is the safer choice. As a spare without your main accounts (alarm clock, music player, camera), it's still useful. Do a factory reset before you give it away or recycle it.
