By Ed Hardy, TabletPCReview Editor | | 3298 Reads

Samsung promised an upgrade to Android 4.1 for its Galaxy Note 10.1, and this is reportedly starting to go out.

There hasn't been an official announcement from Samsung, but people ?in Germany who have this tablet are reporting that this upgrade is showing up. When it will be available in other countries is not yet known.

Aside from providing an upgrade to Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean), the update will also bring a few new Samsung-exclusive features, including "pop up play" functionality, an "easy mode" with simple widgets for favorite and/or your most recently used apps, and a "blocking mode" that keeps the device quiet without it being turned off.

Android 4.1 was introduced over the summer, but is already being replaced with Android 4.2.
