For Samsung owners who don’t own a Galaxy S4 or a Galaxy Note 3, the big question remains: which of Samsung‘s remaining devices will they bother updating to Android 4.4? Well, according to Phandroid’s sources, they’re actually bothering with quite a few as they are reporting that Android 4.4 is coming to multiple Samsung Galaxy devices. The devices included in this report were:
- Samsung Galaxy S4Â SGH-i337
- Samsung Galaxy Note 3
- Samsung Galaxy Note 2
- Samsung Galaxy S3
- Samsung Galaxy Tab 3Â 7.0
- Samsung Galaxy S4 Active
- Samsung Galaxy Mega
- Samsung Galaxy S4 Zoom
- Samsung Galaxy Note 8.0
- Samsung Galaxy S3 Mini
Of which, we know the Galaxy S4 and Note 3 have already started their updates. This report does strengthen the case for Android 4.4 KitKat coming to some of Samsung’s other devices, which was first suggested by several leaked Samsung documents (see here and here) which appeared to suggest that Samsung was contemplating KitKat updates for devices as far down its hierarchy as the Galaxy Core and Galaxy Ace 2. I do find it interesting that the Galaxy S4 Mini isn’t included in Phandroid’s list though, but judging by these multiple corroborated stories, it’s probable that the actually list of device updates is much longer.
What do you think of this news: do you think Samsung is actually going to make good and release Android 4.4 to all of these devices and potentially more? Let us know what you think in the comments.
