Android 4.1 Jelly Bean – Savior of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus

Google’s recent unveiling of its latest and greatest Android 4.1 Jelly Bean OS seems destined to not only skyrocket the Nexus 7 tablet to fame, but also breathe new life into an array of existing high-end Android Smartphones. Likely to be the first of countless devices to receive a well-deserved facelift, Google is once again showcasing the Samsung Galaxy Nexus for sale in its own Play Store, with a tempting serving of 4.1 Jelly Bean to boot.
In fact, Samsung has dodged quite the proverbial bullet to say the least as the inclusion of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean is exactly what has allowed the company to sidestep a temporary restriction put on sales of the Galaxy Nexus

For those who may have somehow missed out on the hype so far, Google unveiled Android 4.1 Jelly Bean at is I/O conference a couple of week ago, delivering the full inside scoop though falling short of an exact release date. Among an array of new features and tweaks afforded to version 4.1 is what has been dubbed the Siri-killing Google Now, which according to early test puts its Apple cousin to shame in terms of overall accuracy.
Of course, no Android 4.1 Jelly Bean release date also meant no information as to existing product update rollouts, though the wheels appear to have been set in motion and the future looks promising for Samsung devotees.
With preorders already in high gear, the official Google Nexus tablet release date is expected to come about during the mid-stages of this month and bring Android 4.1 Jelly Bean to the masses for the very first time. With an incredible spec-sheet, a price tag of just $199 and the bragging-rights that come with temporary Jelly Bean exclusivity, chances are the Nexus 7 will take quite the bite from a market traditionally dominated by Apple’s iPad.
