Samsung Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2 users can expect the release of official Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean any day this month of July 2013 according to a new tip. TouchWiz issue rumoured back then seems to have been fixed and only waits launching from Samsung.

July Release Date Hopes

Every owner of Galaxy S3 is waiting for the official release of Android 4.2.2 firmware from Samsung and a new tip revealed that it may be pushed to users any day this July according to PhonesReview.

Last May, the pre-release version of Android 4.2.2 indicated a successful porting of Galaxy S4 UI and apps to the Galaxy S3 even if rumoured to be suffering TouchWiz problems. The issue also escalated due to Galaxy S4 disappointing sales, preventing the new firmware for Galaxy S3 to be released. October and November has been supported by earlier reports as due date for the official firmware release.

Factors of Possible Early Release

Since Samsung already promised Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean for Galaxy S3 and Galaxy Note 2, the company has no choice but to release it before the end of 2013. Both positive and negative factors could affect the push date of Android 4.2.2 firmware.

1. Samsung sales figure for the second quarter has been revealed and Galaxy S4 shows disappointment.

2. Samsung Galaxy S4 remains "not innovative" which needs Android 4.3 and Android 5.0 Key Lime Pie to "gain uniqueness."

3. Android 4.2.2 running Samsung Galaxy S3 may ruin or help Galaxy S4 sales in the future.

4. Both the latest and previous Galaxy S4 flagship will gain benefit once updated.

5. Updating Galaxy S4 and Galaxy S3 will entice more consumers to go back to Galaxy line with the impression of fast update release.
