 If there was, it wasn't mentioned in Samsung's update notice, nor in the on-screen messages during the update.

   A Samsung update notice is unlikely to mention a Google update, as
they're not related.

Just so Stan is aware, there are a TON of updates that happen to the
Android phone, most of which, as Frank noted, you don't even see them.
Every single month, for example, there are updates to as many as 30
underlying Android packages, which is completely controlled over the
Internet, by Google, and which has nothing to do with Samsung or the
carrier.
Then there are the updates by Samsung.
And the updates by the carrier.
And even more, as Qualcomm sneaks in there too.
On this newsgroup we've discussed every one of those, so this is just a
summary that Frank is correct that there are updates you never see because
Android updates in asynchronous layers. It's not a monolith.
