Will S4 mini get 4.4

[Hvacmanjc]

Hello everyone. I just purchased a Sprint Samsung Galaxy S4 mini and was wondering if anyone knows if it will receive 4.4 KitKat? I know we have not even received 4.3 but was just curious if they plan on it. Thanks in advance

I would think that it will get KitKat, but there's just no definite timeframe yet. They had announced it back in December or so: Android 4.4 KitKat update heading to Samsung Galaxy S4 mini - News - Trusted Reviews

The good news is that we don`t have to wait that much as in the case of Sony updates for its customers, but from my point of view at least six months we need to leave Samsung the time required for the big refreshment

Yes, the mini will receive 4.4.2 confirmed by Samsung today, they just don't say the exact day. Check the link below:

Good to hear it If the announcement was officially made, it can`t last more than 3 months to have our S4 Minis updated

I wonder when it will come to Canada? Does anyone have any history on this regarding past releases?

Probably in one month from the official release. As far as I could notice, whenever an Android update is promoted, North America is the first one served, followed by Europe and Asia
