Samsung Galaxy Note Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update begins roll out

Reports are coming in from across Europe that the Samsung Galaxy Note is finally getting the long-awaited Ice Cream Sandwich Android OS update.

As well as all of the standard Android 4.0 benefits the update brings, Samsung have popped a few tweaks of their own into the new software.

The TouchWiz UI 4.0 skin gets a few performance tweaks, while the S-Pen applications S Note and My Story, allowing for a mix combinations of notes and digital content and the creation of personalised digital e-cards respectively, are also included.

However, Samsung have been a little more coy as to when the update will hit UK handsets. “Samsung UK will confirm details regarding the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich update for Galaxy Note in due course,” is the current official line.

Still, at least the roll-out is now underway, so we expect it shouldn’t be too long before UK Note owners get the update too.
