Following on from other carriers all over the globe, UK’s Three has begun pushing out their very own Jelly Bean update to the Samsung Galaxy S2. While the link provided by Three for support goes to an ICS update page, it seems to suggest that you’ll need to go via the Kies route in order to obtain it.
Jelly Bean for the Galaxy S2 — or any device, for that matter — is a big deal, and besides the Google provided goodies such as Project Butter and Google Now, Samsung has also thrown in their own bag full of tricks. The Android 4.1 update brings the same Touchwiz Nature UX as found on the newer Galaxy S3, improved camera features, S Cloud and Samsung’s own Smart Stay and Pop-Up Play functionality.
The Galaxy S2 was one of the most popular devices of 2011, and it’s fantastic news for all owners that it’s seeing another software update. We’re not sure how long they may continue going forward, but Jelly Bean marks the second major version bump for the device since it originally launched. And that isn’t half bad.
