Sprint's Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 gets Android 4.1.1 update

Sprint has started rolling out Android 4.1.1 to the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1. The update is being sent out OTA and could take a few weeks to cover all of the outstanding units. When the notification arrives on your tablet and is downloaded, you simply install it which is a process that usually takes 15 to 20 minutes. During that time period, your tablet will be disabled.

Android 4.1.1 will bring Project Butter to the tablet, which means that the UI runs as smooth as silk, with lag-fee responsiveness. It also includes Google Now, the feature that brings you the information you need, when you need it. Also with the update comes smoother, effortless transitions between the home page and apps , and the change to the notifications screen which lets you now return calls, send email, and view pictures and video directly from a notification. With the update, widgets re-size on the home page automatically, to help a new widget fit on the screen.

If you own the Sprint version of the Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, Android 4.1.1 is going to revitalize your tablet and make it feel brand new. Just remember that these updates roll out in phases, or waves if you prefer. So if it doesn't come today or even tomorrow, don't jump. You will receive your Jelly Bean. And in case you were wondering, The Wi-Fi only Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 10.1 was updated to Jelly Bean last month.
