Samsung and software updates is known to be a subject in itself. While top models are equipped with the latest firmware versions, but these are undertaken partly with considerable delays – or bugs. However, if you a fresh leak believed, the whole thing could soon change a little. So Samsung is currently to be there Android 4.4 KitKat for no less than ten Galaxy models prepare – among them the Samsung Galaxy S3 , Note 2 and even the Galaxy S3 mini is thus able to benefit from the current firmware.

whole three months after the release of Android 4.4 KitKat Samsung has so far done in Europe to equip the Galaxy Note 3 using the new software – and so far only sporadically – some users are still waiting for the update. Furthermore, it is now official that the Galaxy S4 Advanced is equipped (with Snapdragon 800 and LTE-A) in their country South Korea with the latest firmware. Quentyn Kennemer Now has published an interesting article from Phandroid: So Samsung intends to want to outfit more, some older and entry level models with KitKat. Its source is intended to be a person who should be familiar with the update plans of the South Koreans.

If this leaked list should be correct, what we currently however careful in question, the 2012 flagship Galaxy S3 will together with his “sidekicks” Galaxy S3 mini get a serving of KitKat – as well as the 2012 Samsung Galaxy Note 2 Already in mid-January, rumors were circulating around KitKat updates at least for Galaxy S3 and Note 2, these are underpinned by the current list. Therefore should also get an update even the Galaxy Tab 7.0 and the Galaxy Mega 3. To other devices that are available on the update list, include those in which was to be expected that they will be decked out with KitKat – here are the Galaxy S4 active (test) and S4 Zoom to call, which ultimately derivatives of the (still ) are the current top model.

Here’s the complete list:

  • Samsung Galaxy Note SGH-I317 2
  • Samsung Galaxy S3 SGH-I747
  • Samsung Galaxy Tab 7.0 3 SM-t217a
  • Samsung Galaxy S4 SGH-I337
  • Samsung Galaxy S4 Active SGH-I537
  • Samsung Galaxy Mega SGH-I527
  • Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom SM-c105a
  • Samsung Galaxy Note 3 SM-N900a
  • Samsung Galaxy Note SGH-I467 8.0
  • Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini SM-g730a
  • In these models, although it is the U.S. version – if the list, however, turns out to be genuine, the international variants are likely to be supplied with the KitKat update. What makes us a little taken aback at this overview, the two-level models Galaxy S3 are mini and Galaxy Tab 3 7.0: These two bob each still on Android 4.1 around and it would be a big surprise if you a big jump to version 4.4 will be granted. Likewise, something strange absence of the S4 mini (test), which was introduced during the last year appears. Due to the high prevalence of the Galaxy S4 mini and its hardware similarity to Galaxy S4 Zoom and Galaxy Mega but we do not anticipate that Samsung makes this model are left -., At least if the list turns out to be authentic

    Surely Samsung would set an example with such update Wave, but this approach would also somewhat surprising eventually cost the development of updates a lot of money. On the other hand Android 4.4 KitKat would be the correct version to begin with the care of elderly and beginners devices, because Google has been able to reduce the minimum hardware requirements of this Android iteration significantly thanks to Project Svelte. Nevertheless, we remain with regard to the authenticity of this list initially skeptical, but let’s happy to teach through acts of Samsung better.
