Nothing jumps out at me and Samsung's statement on the new BVL7 release sheds no more light on it...
Nevertheless, it is a very large update.

Samsung's 3rd and latest Android 13 update, BVL7, fixes 93 security vulnerabilities...
"Reportedly, this latest security patch will fix 93 security vulnerabilities which can be found in Galaxy devices."
See...
UK: Galaxy Z Fold 4 getting second December 2022 security patch update​

I do not think I can ever recall such a swift update roll-out from Samsung.
In less than 48 hours, all of the European and Asian countries have been covered, including the carrier branded firmwares, and all of Africa, except South Africa have received this large security update. New Zealand and some of the South American countries have also received it.
It certainly looks as though Samsung are taking this large security update very seriously.

How to find out when and what update is the latest on my Moto Z2 Play :reteu ?

How to find out when and what update is the latest on my Moto Z2 Play ?
I am coming from a Nexus phone, and is used to know what update is the latest and when it got updated.
Is there anyplace, forum, webpage that lists or hints on updates from Motorola (Lenovo)?
I live in Norway and my phone is on reteu channel, and the security update on my phone is 1. july 2017. NPS26. 118-19 versionnumber
Google has released the august security update about a month ago.
What about Motorola ?
A webpage that lists updates for our Z2 Play - found it
see post 7
https://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=73911760&postcount=7
There is no official place where you can check that, as fas as I know,
However Motorola has released the August update for retbr and retapac quite a while ago (according to user reports in this forum).
Just talked to Motorola Support, useless

Ok I know Lenovo now is the owner of Motorola. I also know that support for our products is almost like nothing...
The person at support did not check my softwarechannel, and said that latest update was 1. july security patch. It did not come any for august.
When I asked about when securityupdates usually comes out, he said usally montly, and sometimes they skip a month.
And then I understand why securityapps like antivirus and others sell really well, phones are not updated regularly.
He told me I could search for Motorola Blogspot, and there I could find announcements of new patches. Anyone heard of this, did find a page with news from 2016.
Still no security update or updates at all.
And we are now in the middle of september. My *NEW phone is still on 1. july patch of security. I have got one -1 update on my phone on "reteu" channel.
Sorry to say, I do not belive I will get any more updates, before maybee desember. (some say we will get Oreo, Motorola knows nothing) :fingers-crossed:
Still the apps force close, usally Chrome and Google+ is freezing and shutting down.
I have tryed to get latest update, clean cache and reset. Same old.
I have to admit I now regret buying something fram Lenovo. Now I have learned that lesson, and will pass it on to friends mm....

Friday 15 sept. I got the 1.august security patch.
If this is a standard so, ca 1,5 month after the relase of a security patch from Google, our (almost brand new) Moto Z2 Play wil get the patch.
Maybee we will even get Oreo (8) this year.
Without further ado, here's the list of Moto devices that are getting Android 8.0 Oreo: Moto Z2 Play
A webpage that lists updates for our Z2 Play - found it
After a lot of searching and frustration, I think I have found a searchstring on Mororola's pages that lists new updates mm.
So here is the link... and since it is a search, here it is.
https://motorola-global-en-roe.custhelp.com/app/answers/list//p/30,6720,10215/
And as you can see, a bit down, it lists the security update for september. But I belive the rolling out via OTA bit is reeeaaallly slow.
Date Updated: 13/09/2017
This update introduces changes including the following:
Android Security : Includes the updates of Android security patches through September 1st 2017.

Nice, it's out for SIO (Slovenia), seems to be actually July security patch.
Update is avaiable for german dbt device !!!
Let's try to name the update by Security Patch Level. That is, if the date is 1 July for this point, this is an July update and not an June or August update. In this case it is irrelevant when in which region it was provided for OTA, the more important is the version. In my case, about two weeks after June, followed by the July update and the version of security I have July 1.
A505FN, Czech Republic.

True, although it's named as August 2019 update on samfrew.com website and that might also bring confusion ?
Thus, the post will be for example:
Our region in August received the July update ...
.
Any a505G, GN or GT region with the August update?
is this august update fix weak mobile signal?

I know but the problem with Smartswitch is that you have to reenter your Samsung password after a restore and then it populates a warning across all my other Samsung devices to be sure it is really me. lol

I hated that so I use gmail to log into Samsung account and I use a different email for each device. None are used for anything but phone and that alone.
Poland, Luxembourg, Austria and France firmware is compatible with Germany (DBT) right?

Camera is updated, will see what's up
Did they fix Material You theming for the volume bar?
EDIT. No update in Poland.
Great Im not at home to download it hope the OTA comes soon
Bifrost has the changelog, Camera/Gallery/Security
Finally Image clipper is now available in this update.
So everyone is getting this update besides the EUX csc
