Samsung has started to roll out the Android Jelly Bean update and a host of 'Premium Suite' features for the original Galaxy Note.
The Korean manufacturer is gradually furnishing the 5.3-inch smartphone/tablet device with the update, with immediate availability depending on region and mobile network. It is rolling out in phases, so it might not yet be available for your country or network provider.
Android 4.1 obviously brings the awesome Google Now app into play, while a host of Samsung Premium Suite features are also piggy-backing along for the ride.
Moreover, original Galaxy Note owners will get the neat Multi Window functionality, which allows users to use two apps simultaneously (i.e. sending an email and watching a video) without switching screens. It also brings Page Buddy, which launches a window featuring relevant apps when a user, for example, pops out the S-Pen or plugs in headphones.
There's also a customisable notifications panel and the Smart Rotation feature that also proved popular on the Galaxy Note 2.
When it becomes available, the update will be available to download over-the-air or using Samsung's Kies desktop software.
