Five Samsung smartphones to get the KitKat treatment this month

Reports based on the leaked documents coming from Samsung India show that the Korean tech giant would bring the KitKat roll-out to five Samsung smartphones this month. The five spotted handsets are the Galaxy Note 3 Neo, Galaxy Grand 2 Duos, Galaxy Mega 6.3, Galaxy Mega 5.8 Duos and the Galaxy S4 mini.

The update for all these five smartphones have been finalized and the roll-out for the same in a staged manner. The above image shows the listing of the devices for the same. Now what appears is that this image seems to be pretty official unless someone is not that articulate to Photoshop it.

Moreover for the model numbers listed for the Galaxy Grand 2 and the Galaxy Mega 5.8 they show it to be their dual SIM that would be getting the KitKat treatment. It is still unclear as to whether the single SIM variants of the phone will too get the update or before or after it.

Five Samsung smartphones to get the KitKat treatment this month

Galaxy S5 and Galaxy Note 3 almost geared up for Android 4.4.3 update

Samsung is apparently getting closer and closer in upgrading their premium smartphones with Android 4.4.3.The first devices to get an Android 4.4.3 build from the Korean giants are the Galaxy S5 and the Galaxy Note 3. According to a purportedly leaked internal document, the Android 4.4.3 KitKat updates for both Snapdragon and Exynos versions of the Galaxy S5 have been finalized.

The leaked document claimed that both models of the Galaxy S5 which they are SM-G900F , SM-G900F had passed the final level of testing the new update, and the Galaxy Note 3 the latest flagship phablet from Samsung in the final testing level for the Android 4.4.3. It seems that Galaxy S5 will be reportedly rolled out this month while the Galaxy Note 3 update might take until July to come out.

One thing to note that image above appears to be doctored as there seems to be plenty of font related irregularities.Keeping that in mind, take this with a pinch of salt.

Further complicating things is the fact that Google has just rolled out Android 4.4.4 to its Nexus devices, a version that seems to contain a pretty important security fix.

That leads us a doubt of whether Samsung will first release Android 4.4.3 for its devices or directly start working on the latest version of the OS? Or will it choose to skip Android 4.4.3 altogether and simply come out with a 4.4.4 build, neglecting the delay in release for a short while?
