Jelly Bean Update For Galaxy S2 likely February 2013


Good news for Galaxy S2 users!!


It has been reported that Samsung will provide a Jelly Bean Update for Galaxy S2 in February next month, starting from users in Singapore.

Since release of Galaxy S III, it was the general perception that Samsung has forgotten about its Galaxy S 2 users as no update has been provided to them for long.

Now the news has brought hopes that the S 2 users will also have their JB updated. The news have been broken by a Samsung spokesman to C|net that Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) updates will be rolling out to current S2 owners in the beginning of February in Singapore.
