Samsung Galaxy S III, Note II will not get Android Lollipop in the UK

05 July, 2015
Each global branch of the Korean giant appears to handle the update decision for the phablet differently.

I own a Galaxy S3 and I don't even have the official kitkat. I'll never buy a Samsung anymore.

        mixa, 06 Jul 2015My Xperia Z is getting even 5.1 and the poor S3 doesn't.Sad... moreRemember how they were talking that Sony is not providing updates and when it does it is too slow?Complete Z series are getting 5.1 that proves who cares about their costumers.

            That would be fine except that Samsung stated publicly it would be upgraded.

                      AnonD-105795, 06 Jul 2015So what! Every phone is old after 2 years or may be 3 years... moreI would agree but for one thing. Samsung previously announced the Note 2 would get an upgrade. So personally I cannot trust a word they say now. They do nothing for months then seemingly go back on their word and we only find that out out by accident even then. I would say they are appalling but they are not that good!

                                  this is what will happen to you if u keep buying droid devices. Abandoned after 2 years (or less).
                                  And all 3rd party ROMs have BAD camera image quality too.
