A leaked Samsung document allegedly shows off
the expected time frame during which certain
models will be receiving the Android 4.4 update. The
devices in question are the international version of
the Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9500), Samsung
Galaxy Note 3 (SM-N900), Samsung Galaxy S III
(GT-I9300) and the Samsung GALAXY Note II (SM-
N7100).
If the document is genuine, the Samsung Galaxy S4
and the Samsung Galaxy Note 3 will be updated to
Android 4.4 in January 2014. The Galaxy S III and
the GALAXY Note III will each be updated sometime
in the March-April 2014 time frame. Carrier branded
models will take longer since each operator will
need to test the update for each device. Android 4.4
will make each model smoother and more
responsive with Project Svelte, the successor to
Jelly Bean's Project Butter.
As usual, with such a high-profile rumor, we
suggest you cast a cynical eye on the story. Phonearena
