Samsung Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich device update list (USA)

The world of Android-powered devices is slowly but surely making the move towards the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich as the dominant operating system version of choice, and when it comes to Samsung’s range of Android devices, Samsung has helpfully put up a list of carriers here in the US as well as their respective devices which they carry. 

So far, the following have been confirmed for Ice Cream Sandwich via AT&T – Galaxy S2 (SGH-i777), Galaxy S2 Skyrocket (SGH-i727), Galaxy Note (SGH-i717), Captivate Glide (SGH-i927), Nexus S (SGH-i9020A) and Galaxy Tab 8.9 (SGH-i957).

As for Sprint, the Ice Cream Sandwich update for the Nexus S 4G (SPH-d720) is already available, and their version of the Galaxy S2, the Epic 4G Touch (SPH-d710) is also confirmed to receive Android 4.0.

Verizon will see Ice Cream Sandwich arrive on the Galaxy Tab 10.1 (SCH-i905) and Galaxy Tab 7.7 (SCH-i815) in due time, while Wi-Fi versions of the Galaxy Tab 7.0 Plus Wi-Fi (P6210), Galaxy Tab 8.9 Wi-Fi (P7310), and Galaxy Tab 10.1 Wi-Fi (P7510) will also be on the receiving end.

Last but not least, how about poor T-Mobile? All Samsung can say is, “We are in close communication with T-Mobile to ensure that eligible devices are upgraded to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich in the coming months and will provide updates as we have additional details to share.” Hopefully the slew of devices will be more than a paltry list!
