SamMobile Recap: Galaxy Note 4 features, Samsung’s Virtual Reality headset, and more
There’s a lot of stuff that happens in the tech industry, something that is especially true when it comes to giants like Samsung. If you missed out on some (or all) of what happened over the weekend, well, here’s a recap of all the big things that went down.
We published exclusive info on some of the software features that are expected to debut on the Galaxy Note 4, and also saw rumors of a supposed announcement date for the upcoming phablet. A rumor came out suggesting that Samsung could be working on a virtual reality headset in its latest bid to wander into uncharted territory, and that its standalone SIM-enabled smartwatch could launch as early as next month.
We also got yet another look at the Galaxy S5 Active, which has pretty much leaked extensively before launch, including making appearances in a handful of videos. Android 4.4.2 came a step closer to rolling out to a particular variant of the Galaxy S III, while T-Mobile started then stopped a bug fix update it had prepared for the Galaxy S5.
Here’s the full rundown:
- • US Cellular to update Galaxy S III to Android 4.4 KitKat soon?
- • Report: Samsung developing Virtual Reality headset for its phones and tablets
- • Samsung Galaxy Note 4 tipped for a September 3rd announcement
- • EXCLUSIVE: Galaxy Note 4 features like ‘Multi Network for Booster’, ‘Aqua Capture’, and ‘Smart Fingerprint’ under testing
- • Samsung to launch standalone SIM-enabled smartwatch as early as June?
- • Press render of AT&T’s Galaxy S5 Active leaked, confirms what we’ve already seen
- • T-Mobile halts Galaxy S5 update due to issue that causes lower data speeds
As usual, a lot of devices got firmware updates as well, so here’s a list of all the updates that rolled to Samsung devices over the weekend (as always, you can find all the firmware you need in our firmware section):

ممكن روم او فايل سوفت Galaxy S 3 Mini (GT-I8190
Galaxy ace run on 4.4.2 which has 512 mb ram… I don’t understand what is wrong with i9300 or s3
كلب ابي روم كاكات يا كلب سرعه
I think, I had made mistake by buying note 3 neo
Still it is not updated to 4.4.2.:(((((
Galaxy s3 NEO+ GT-I9301I got the same 1GB of ram like GT-i9300 and what we read now he got 4.4.2. Samsung we are not blind
No friend’s Galaxy S3 Neo + has 1.5 gb of RAM while the normal S3 International (i9300) has only 1 gb of RAM
Galaxy S3 i9300 Kitkat Coming soon ?
