The phablet Samsung Galaxy Note II (GT-N7100) is officially receiving a update software that will take you to 4.1.2 Android Jelly Bean. Of course, it is only a small advance from its last update to 4.1.1 but there are changes that are worth noting in the remodeled operating system of the rare device of the Korean company.
Among these new features there are some that we expected from Google's operating system and others that we expected from Samsung itself. Adding them up, the most notable changes are these:
- Ability to disable Multi-View or the multiscreen option
- Improvements and new elements in the Notification bar
- possibility of customize the notification panel
- Ink effect on unlock screen
- New typing system in the keyboard with similarities to Swype
Precisely this last detail has also arrived without the need for additional applications to the Amazon Kindle Fire HD tablet by signing an agreement with that company. And of course, also on all devices with Android 4.2 as it comes natively in the operating system. If you want to have a similar effect on another type of device, perhaps this list of keyboard apps for Android that we recently prepared.
In this way the samsung phablet it becomes even more a truly cutting-edge team among mobile devices. Although in this segment it may soon have a lot of company, since there are a good number of models that are about to reach the European market, all of them coming from Asia. Here's an article in which we compare with Galaxy Note II.
This update is perhaps a last step before the desired update to Android 4.2, an operating system that only Google prototypes enjoy and that brings this series of advantages in addition to the keyboard.
The update can arrive by OTA at any time but we recommend that you keep an eye on KIES in case the flies.
