If you're still using an original Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet, don't worry, Samsung hasn't forgotten about you. The original Note 10.1, the GT-N8000, is starting to see prompts for an update to Android 4.4.2 in Germany, both OTA and through Samsung Kies.

The update brings the device up to par with other Samsung devices on KitKat, bringing better performance and battery life, some redesigned interface elements (think white status bar icons) and wireless printing support, plus everything that's native to KitKat.

Samsung is likely using Germany to test out the update at first, so we'll probably see it pushed out to the rest of the world pretty soon.

  Wifi only 2014 models have access to the update already. Settings> About> Software update> check for update. Ours updated in Early May. Still waiting for my 2012 to update…anxiously.
