Samsung Galaxy S2 update brings about several new features

If you’re a Samsung Galaxy S2 owner, the good news is that Samsung has announced that they will be releasing a software update for the handset that will bring about a couple of new features. No word on when exactly this update will be rolled out, although a “near future” date is to be expected.

The update will bring about an increase in the device’s home screen icons – increasing it by a good 30%, which means that those who have trouble pressing the right icons should be pleased by this. The update will also bring a firmware-over-the-air widget that will bring about instant access whenever there’s an update available for the device, along with a notification. While these aren’t exactly major updates, the conveniences this update is bringing to the table should please several users.
