with firmware version N920GDDU2AOL1. The December security update for
the Galaxy Note 5 is about 72MB in size and users can manually check for
the update via Settings > About Device > Software Update.
To

recently started receiving
the same Android December Security update. Users report (via Sammobile), the Galaxy Note 5's security update brings improvements
to voice calls, apart from security enhancements. Samsung has also made
it clear that downgrading after the installation of this update will not
be possible. The company has also detailed its December security update
on its dedicated website. It
said, "Samsung Mobile is releasing a maintenance release for major
flagship models as part of monthly Security Maintenance Release (SMR)
process. This SMR package includes patches from Google and Samsung."
To
recall, soon after the revelation of a major Android vulnerability
called Stagefright, which affected large pool of devices, Google and Samsung announced plans to release security patches for its devices about once every
month. This was soon followed by other Android OEMs including LG and
Motorola. An earlier report had claimed that out of all the Android
OEMs, LG was best at offering security updates for its devices.
