According to the announcements, Samsung has started the process of updating its flagship model Galaxy S4. For now, the update has been made available to customers in Germany, but we can be sure that by the end of the year and it will come to us.
The phone can be updated by connecting it to a computer and the KIES application, but it will be far easier to do it using Samsung's over-the-air service when connected to a hot-spot. Whether an update is available, you will check by entering to Settings - More - About Device - Software update - Update.
What's new you will find in Android 4.3 Jelly Bean for Galaxy S4? First of all, the phone should accelerate. Editors at Sammobile confirm that benchmark scores have significantly increased, so in real-world usage the difference should give the notice. The new system introduces support for the watch Galaxy Gear, KNOX security suite and Samsung Wallet service. There were improved RAM management, work with wireless accessories, as well as the management of the display, which is expected to deliver improved colour reproduction. There was also added support for OpenGL ES 3.0, changed the keyboard and a web browser and camera software. TouchWiz Launcher was optimized, at the same time changing its appearance a bit. "Reading Mode" for easy viewing text files is also something new. I will be able to write more when the update appears on my phone. Then I'll show you the appearance of changed elements. For now, let's watch a video is prepared by Sammobile.
