Samsung Galaxy S3 Android Jelly Bean update roll out begins!

Good news for all Samsung Galaxy S3 owners today: after months of waiting, the Android Jelly Bean 4.1 update has started rolling out now!

PC Advisor reports that the Android Jelly Bean update for the Samsung Galaxy S3 has started rolling out in Poland. The update brings stacks of new features to Samsung’s hit phone that Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich does not have, including smarter notifications you can expand to see more of, offline voice recognition and speech to text and Google Now, Google’s intelligent search app that works a bit like Siri.

That should mean that a wider Samsung Galaxy S3 Android Jelly Bean update isn’t far off: expect SIM-free models to get it first, with a slight delay for those locked to a network while your carrier tests the software first.

Got your Samsung Galaxy S3 Android Jelly Bean update yet? Let us know in the comments and HTC One X owners, don’t worry! Yours is on the way soon too.
