The latest devices to receive the new Android version with the latest One UI build are as follows: the Samsung Galaxy Tab A7, Galaxy A31, and Galaxy A41.

The Galaxy A31 was only unveiled in March while the Galaxy A41 was announced early last year.

No changelog is available but we can expect the usual Android 11 updates like one-time permissions, chat bubbles, better UI design, a centralized media player widget, auto permissions reset, quick access to smart home controls, and a conversations section within the notifications. Overal, you can expect enhanced security and performance.
The latest One UI 3.1 features deliver a new Device Care section, ability to remove GPS location data, better Samsung Keyboard and Samsung Internet apps, updated stock apps with new features, and enhanced Digital Wellbeing and parental controls. Expect more Dynamic Lockscreen options plus lockscreen widgets.
