Samsung 確認 Galaxy S III, S III mini 不會有 Android 4.4 KitKat 升級

Galaxy S III No KitKat

前兩天有 Samsung 內部文件流出,指 Galaxy S III Android 4.4 KitKat 升級已經取消。現在終於有一些官方的消息,Samsung UK 確認 Galaxy S III 和 S III mini 3G 版本不會有 Android 4.4 KitKat 升級。

“In order to facilitate an effective upgrade on the Google platform, various hardware performances such as the memory (RAM, ROM, etc.), multi-tasking capabilities, and display must meet certain technical expectations. The Galaxy S3 and S3 mini 3G versions come equipped with 1GB RAM, which does not allow them to effectively support the platform upgrade. As a result of the Galaxy S3 and S3 mini 3G versions’ hardware limitation, they cannot effectively support the platform upgrade while continuing to provide the best consumer experience. Samsung has decided not to roll-out the KitKat upgrade to Galaxy S3 and S3 mini 3G versions, and the KitKat upgrade will be available to the Galaxy S3 LTE version as the device’s 2GB RAM is enough to support the platform upgrade.”

因 1GB RAM
在 Samsung Mobile UK 在回應中指出,Galaxy S III 和 S III mini 3G 版本只有 1GB RAM,由於硬件規格所限,所以 Samsung 決定不會為 Galaxy S III 和 S III mini 3G 版本推出 Android 4.4 KitKat 升級。而 4G LTE 由於配備有 2GB RAM,所以不受影響,會有 Android 4.4 KitKat 升級。

雖然話 Android 4.4 KitKat 可以在 512MB RAM 手機上運行,但這都只限原裝無添加的 Stock Android,Samsung 手機加添了大量自家 Apps,對於記憶體需求大得多,結果就導致手機升級也成問題。廠商應該要想想,不要讓手機加添太多自家 Apps,反而影響了系統本身。
