Samsung continues working to bring the best user experience to its terminals. And, today, it is one of the companies that is bringing the most updates to the market. The last to arrive has been an improvement for one of its benchmarks in the sector: Samsung Galaxy Note 2. It was recently updated to Android 4.1.2 with different improvements and functions. And now it is the turn of the autonomy of its battery, which is further improved.
Samsung Galaxy Note 2 is one of the most powerful equipment on the market, as well as being one of the most famous and successful hybrids that has already sold several million units around the world. On the other hand, it is also a smartphone ”” or phablet ”” that has greater battery life. And it is that its capacity reaches 3,100 milliamps, being able to extend its autonomy up to two days without the need to be plugged into a power outlet. That is to say: an unusual aspect in this sector.
Also, after the arrival of the update to Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean, some isolated cases noted that their autonomy was somewhat worse than with the previous version of the platform. But a month later, the Korean company has released the solution in the form of an update that is beginning to reach computers in free format. The update consists of a package of just over 66 MB, and after its installation, the improvement in the autonomy results are clearly visible: it is possible to end the day with about 10 percent more battery than usual.
Samsung also reported through its official Twitter channel that it is a minor update and that it corrected some stability flaws, leaving its Samsung TouchWiz user interface even finer than it usually goes on a day-to-day basis, since Thanks to the 1.6 GHz frequency and quad-core processor and its two GigaBytes RAM, the operation of this terminal is very fluid.
Ways to update the Samsung Galaxy Note 2
Meanwhile, the update of the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 can be done in two ways: through OTA or through the Samsung Kies computer program. With the first one, the user will receive a notice on the terminal home screen informing that a new version of the software is available. If not, the customer can also force the search by going to the “Settings” menu, clicking on the “about device” section and then, on the first option “Software update”. After the notice of new available functions appears, you will only have to download the data package "" always through a WiFi network so as not to penalize the contracted data rate"" And with the terminal connected to a power source or, at a minimum, have the battery at more than 50 percent of its capacity.
It is always advisable to make a backup copy of all the files that are stored in memory, in case an error occurs during the process and the information is lost. After this step, you just have to follow the instructions and wait for the new functions to be installed and the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 to restart.
On the other hand, if the Samsung Kies program is used, the user must connect the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 to the computer through a USB port. Once connected, the same program must inform if there is an update pending to be installed, in addition to offering, in detail, all the technical information of the terminal. If there is a new version, just follow the steps indicated by the program.
