What's happened to note 10.1

[glitchgod]

Im reading how other Samsung notes and galaxy tab are being updated left and right. Some even reporting 4.3!!!
I must ask though did Samsung for get us? I hate to think so since I always saw Samsung as being better then HTC but come on Samsung

Anyone know anything about the Note 10.1 maybe Note 10.2 ver 2

I wouldn't worry a ton about it. 4.2 doesn't bring all that much to the table, and 4.3 is really just BLE and TRIM support. Luckily, the Note 10.1 doesn't suffer the way the Nexus 7 2012 model did with the lack of TRIM support. BLE is a lot more useful on phones, not to say it wouldn't have a place with your tablet. All in all, the decoupling of the core Google apps from the OS ease this a lot. You're not missing all that much.
If you really want a more updated OS, try to learn about rooting and custom roms. Don't do anything until you really understand it, but this can open the door to higher versions of Android than are officially supported.

Rumors of the Note 10.1 2nd gen being announced at IFA with the Note 3 phone. Rumors so we'll see, but it's due for an upgrade. As far as I've seen there isn't any talk of any of the current galaxy lineup getting 4.3 officially. The only devices spoken of currently are the Note 2 (getting 4.3), Galaxy S3 and Galaxy S4. Shoot, the tab 3 lineup dropped in July and came with 4.1...a bit disappointing but at least they're claiming the Note 3 is dropping with 4.3.

As well as support for OpenGL ES 3.0. That and restricted profiles could be useful for families with tablets.

Good points.

Okay I once read that Samsung was sending out updates to the high end devices to allow SD storage of apps.

If it comes to the Note 10, it'll be after the other devices. S4 and Note 2 are their priority.

That's sad,
The note is really OP and should be kept OP
