The Samsung Galaxy S2 Android 4.0 update train in slowly chugging along. The update is still not available in a lot of major markets including India and the US (if you don’t count the leaked update for the AT&T Galaxy S2 Skyrocket). But almost every Samsung UK customer will be very happy.
Following rollouts for Galaxy S2s on the Vodafone, O2, and Three networks, the update is now available for all unlocked (contract-free) and SIM-free devices in the UK. I mentioned “almost every Samsung UK customer” earlier, as the update is still not available for customers on the T-Mobile and Orange networks. In a statement issued to Pocket-Lint, Samsung UK mentioned that the updates for Orange and T-Mobile will follow as soon as possible, pending software testing and approvals.
The Android 4.0 update for the Samsung Galaxy S2 include a host of new features such as:
- Face Unlock
- A new look multi-tasking menu making it easier to close apps
- Google Chrome Beta app
- Data consumption tracking
- The ability to disable pre-installed apps
