2021-05-06

Today we got some spicy information concerning all Samsung Galaxy owners, regardless of the type of gadget they have - a smartphone or a slate. It's a list showing which devices will be getting the Android 5.0 and which will end with the upcoming Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean update.

So, the smartphones to end their life cycle with at Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean are:

• GT-I9080 – Galaxy Grand
• GT-I9082 – Galaxy Grand DUOS
• GT-I8160 – Galaxy Ace 2
• GT-I8190 – Galaxy S III mini
• GT-I8530 – Galaxy Beam
• GT-I8730 – Galaxy Express
• GT-I9070 – Galaxy S Advance
• GT-I9100 – Galaxy S II
• GT-I9105 – Galaxy S II Plus
• GT-I9260 – Galaxy Premier
• GT-N7000 – Galaxy Note
• GT-S6310 – Galaxy Young
• GT-S6312 – Galaxy Young DUOS
• GT-S6810 – Galaxy Fame
• GT-S7710 – Galaxy X Cover 2

Even though 4.2.2 version will be the last Android upgrade for those, let's not forget how old some of them actually are and how many previous updates they've got (this will be the third major update for the Galaxy S II). And when you think about the update policy of other manufacturers (if it even exists), Samsung did a commendable job keeping its high-end devices up to date.

Now comes the list with the devices which will get Android 5.0 and possibly even more updates.

• GT-I9300 – Galaxy S III
• GT-I9305 – Galaxy S III LTE
• GT-I9500 – Galaxy S 4
• GT-I9505 – Galaxy S 4 LTE
• GT-N5100 – Galaxy Note 8.0
• GT-N5105 – Galaxy Note 8.0 LTE
• GT-N5110 – Galaxy Note 8.0 Wi-Fi

• GT-N8000 – Galaxy Note 10.1
• GT-N8005 – Galaxy Note 10.1 LTE
• GT-N8010 – Galaxy Note 10.1 Wi-Fi
