Samsung Galaxy S3 & Galaxy Note 2 Android 4.3 Updates Confirmed

Last week, the Samsung Galaxy S4 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update rolled out to select owners around the world. The update, which will continue to roll out in the weeks ahead, is thought to have arrived ahead of two other Android 4.3 Jelly Bean updates, updates for the Samsung Galaxy S3 and Samsung Galaxy Note 2. And while Samsung hasnt confirmed anything yet, a Galaxy Gear manual and a carrier in Australia have confirmed the updates for arrival in the weeks ahead.

At the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 launch event, Samsung announced that it would be rolling out a software update to the Galaxy S4, Galaxy Note 2 and Galaxy S3 that would bring support for the Galaxy Gear, Samsungs new watch accessory. While the company didnt call it Android 4.3 Jelly Bean by name, it was assumed that it would be Android 4.3.

Those suspicions were confirmed last week, at least for the Samsung Galaxy S4, as Samsung began the Android 4.3 roll out for the Galaxy S4. The update, which hasnt yet rolled out in the United States, brings a number of upgrades to the table including support for the Galaxy Gear. While it has been assumed that the Galaxy Note 2 and Galaxy S3 updates are next, Samsung hasnt said anything. Thanks to a Galaxy Gear manual and Telstra Australia though, we now know the Android 4.3 updates are on their way.
