Re: GT-N8013 KitKat Update will not be provided by Samsung
I just spoke with a tech representative from Samsung's Wi-Fi tablets department (USA/South Carolina) . The call had been escalated through the executive customer relations department of Samsung.
Samsung will not be providing any Android OS updates for the GT-N8013.
They stated that it is Google's responsibility to update the OS. I did note that this was a bit strange, but they held to that statement.
I suspect this means that if you want to update, you will have to root the machine, and find a rom on your own. Samsung will not have your back!
I think I will go with NEXUS or ASUS in the future. I will probably also avoid their TVs also since computer chips are a central feature of these systems nowadays.
