Samsung Galaxy Note 4 gets a battery life-boosting update

The Galaxy Note 4 is a 4-year-old phone so it's nice to see Samsung still taking care of it. The update is minor, though, so don't expect a new OS version at this point.

The OTA update has been spotted in the Netherlands and it's 224MB big. The changelog points to improved security, but users say it still shows February 2018 security patch. Our best guess is that Samsung just applied a critical security fix without implementing the latest one from July.

In addition, the update brings better power management, performance and stability although, no specifics are givene. Since it's already live in Europe, expect it to arrive globally in the following days.
