Samsung has just released a press release announcing the release of the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update for three of its best tablets – the Galaxy Tab 2 7, Galaxy Tab 2 10.1, and the Note 10.1.
We’ve informed you on Tuesday about the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean rollout for the Note 10.1 (looks like the press release is a bit late), but now Samsung has officially confirmed that the new version of Android is available on Kies and via OTA for the Wi-Fi model.
Update: August 7, 2019 at 4 p.m. ET: The Samsung Galaxy Note 10 and Note 10 Plus are now official! Check out our hands-on right here — you don’t want to miss it.
Original article: Samsung has already flexed its muscles in 2019 with the Galaxy S10 series, but now it’s time to go even bigger with the Note 10 launch.
The second Samsung Unpacked of the year will take place today at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York, where we expect to see not just one phablet, but two: the Galaxy Note 10 and Galaxy Note 10 Plus.

TL;DR
The latest Android version distribution stats show that Android 10 is the most popular version. Android 11 was a close second place, while Android 12 didn’t make the cut. 9to5Google has indeed done just that and revealed the most recent breakdown. And it turns out that Android 10 is the most popular version, accounting for 26.5% of all devices that accessed the Play Store during a seven-day period.
The Samsung Galaxy S10 has arrived in not two, not three, but four models this year. While the S10e makes the phone more affordable and the 5G model remains a way off, a good chunk of this year’s smartphone purchases will probably go to the flagship Galaxy S10 and Galaxy S10 Plus models.
To help figure out whether these premium models are worth your money, we’re running down the specs against some of the best flagship smartphones on the market right now.
Magic is a niche hobby. However, it saw a bit of a revival over the last few years. The success of TV shows like Penn & Teller’s Fool Us along with shows like America’s Got Talent and its British counterpart. Magic is a hands-on hobby so there isn’t a lot of material out there for mobile devices. A lot of the stuff you can find are just modernized versions of old learning methods.
Hulu may be looked upon as the smaller version of Netflix, but the truth is that the premium streaming service has a lot of great TV shows and movies that are not available on its bigger competitor. The service’s cheapest subscription tier (with commercials) is just $6.99 a month. If you can stomach some ads, you will be able to access the complete runs of some of the best shows on Hulu.
