Samsung France confirms the Galaxy Note 3 Neo will receive Lollipop later this year

For the past few months Samsung has steadily been releasing the Android 5.0 Lollipop update for many of its smartphones. It's done with most high-end devices. Many of the company's mid-range devices are compatible but so far Samsung has not provided the update roadmap for them. The Galaxy Note 3 Neo is one such device. Samsung France has confirmed today that the Lollipop update for the Galaxy Note 3 Neo is in the pipeline. In response to a query from someone on Twitter the official Samsung France account tweeted that the Android 5.0 update for the Galaxy Note 3 Neo will be released sometime later in 2015.

The Galaxy Note 3 Neo is basically a toned down version of the Galaxy Note 3. It has a 5.5-inch 720p display, an Exynos 5260 SoC, 2GB RAM, 16GB onboard memory with microSD card support, 8-megapixel rear and 2-megapixel front cameras, and a 3,100mAh battery. The design is quite similar to the high-end phablet and it even has the faux leather back of the Galaxy Note 3.
