Samsung starts Android 4.1.2 Premium Suite update to Galaxy S III in the UK

Slowly rolling out around the world, Samsung has firstly rolled out the Android 4.1.2 update for Samsung Galaxy S III since the UK. The new update will give owners the chance to enjoy Premium Suite features that were first included on the Galaxy Note II. The UK users could now get the OTA update or via Samsung’s KIES software.

With the new Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean update the Galaxy S III users now could have multi-window feature on the Galaxy S 3 to run apps aide-by-side simultaneously. Meanwhile, the update improved the performance of Samsung’s own apps, including Paper Artist, Samsung Gallery and Group Cast. Galaxy S 3 owners will also gain smarter rotation recognition, the ability to tag friends, locations and dates to different pieces of media and files, and Auto Share Shot Pairing – which allows photos to be shared over an NFC ‘bump.’

Samsung has also improved its Best Photo feature to launch ‘Best Face’ which provides a choice of five shots from which users could choose the best face of each person in their shot.

Add in a better low light mode, an updated panorama mode, improved touch response and better media features, the update really extends the usefulness of Samsung’s bestselling Android smartphone.
