The Samsung Galaxy S3 for Verizon up until now did not benefit from Android 4.3 and all of the very cool features the operating system came with. But now the American giant is updating its variant of Samsung's phone from last year with it. What this means is that the Verizon Galaxy S2 is now enhanced with support for the Galaxy Gear and KNOX functionality. But the 4.3 version of Android is extremely rich in features and there are of course a number of other upgrades to the phone.
