I'll believe it when the update starts rolling out. Samsung has a record of telling you an update is coming and then not delivering for months later. Galaxy Tab 10.1 and Q1 2012 ring any bells?

Oh please, they do even worse. Galaxy S2/Note still didn't get the ICS update in the Middle East/North Africa region

It's not Samsung fault... Blame Sam Mobile... the one who create all this hype... Sgs2 update is suppose to be at March 2012 but sammobile the one who announced at December 2011...

i hope touchwiz is still as good and user friendly while I hope S voice is scrapped with GNow.
19. Tjey007 posted on 06 Aug 2012, 07:28 2 1
i guess there will be both because GNow comes with JB and S voice samsungs own app.

He's just trolling. The SGS3 is selling extremely well because its an amazing device.

amazing can you please tell me what makes it amazing i have never had a phone broke twice in 20 days thats so called amazing s3

Broke? Its a phone with a huge touch screen, any phone with a touch screen can break if you are stupid or unlucky. The mighty RAZR can break and even the iPhone. So if you're too clumsy or dumb to keep your phone is your hand, that's your own fault.

At least they get timely updates rather than six months later. You'd think with JB being an incremental upgrade it would be out sooner. Leave it up to Samsung to take their time on it.

Well, it's not as important to get the updates quickly when your closest competitor is still being your last release.

Timely updates. Good one. Care to explain why the 3GS only gets like 10% of iOS 6 features?

Every ICS device should get JB. Its a much improved optimization. If the Nexus S can run JB there's no excuse for any dual core device with 1GB of RAM. Tho I'm sure some devices won't just for the sake of being forgotten. But its good Galaxy S2 and Note users will also be getting it.
16. amiaq posted on 06 Aug 2012, 07:06 4 1
HTC has to get their act together, at least announce when will JB will be available for HTC One X. Otherwise all the potential buyers will turn to GSIII.!!

This is good to hear. i plan on getting either the Note or Note II before the end of the year. either way, i cant wait to see Jelly Bean on the Note or Note II

That Good, I hope Samsung has included to address the SD card issue. Sure would be nice to move apps to the Ext. SD card.

I'm getting tired of explaining this to people, most smartphones have a development cycle of 10 - 18 months, they started developing this phone before Google announced ICS, Jelly bean just hit sources a few weeks ago, they didn't have time to build and test jelly bean this late in the development cycle without causing huge delays. it'll get it just be patient.

Well, my GS 2 is already on 4.1.1, so it really does not matter when Samsung will release the official one.

Do you anyone know if the Galaxy Note 2 is gonna hit all carriers like the galaxy s 3 or just a few.
41. Jeradiah3 posted on 07 Aug 2012, 12:59 0 0
Id assume that the Note II would follow the same path as the SGS3 and go to 3 of the 4 major carriers (AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint)
26. Falcon11 posted on 06 Aug 2012, 13:14 0 0
I bet the Verizon GS3 will be last GS3 to get the update....also, I hope to God that the Jelly Bean update on my GS3 will make it look alot more stock. Im just not a fan of touchwiz. I just don't like the colors...the blue and orange need to go. Bring my black and white and maybe a green color...anything but whats on there now

If it's true that they going to launch jellybean on SGS lll it will be the best device and fastest of samsung products for now .
