Jelly Bean update for Samsung Galaxy S II, Note delayed to 2013

Samsung's 2011 flagship device—the Galaxy S II—still has its fans. Users of the S II and the Note have been eagerly awaiting the imminent update to Jelly Bean. According to SamMobile, they might have to wait longer. Samsung has delayed the update to the December-January window, after a series of previous delays.One of the reasons for the delay could be the recent reveal of the exploit on Exynos 4 based devices. Samsung may be working on a fix for the exploit in the upcoming update. The company could also be better optimising its new Touch Wizz for the older devices. The delay could also be caused by the localisation required for different countries, as Samsung plans to release the update globablly instead of rolling it out in specific countries at a time. Users will have to wait till January 2013 to see.
