Samsung UK took to its Twitter account over the weekend to confirm rumors that it has no intention of rolling out the Android 5.1 Lollipop update to the Galaxy S3’s and Note 2’s in the region. The handsets will, instead, remain on Android 4.4.2 KitKat.

Unfortunately, the South Korean company has not given a reason for its decision, but we assume it’s because it’s been struggling to make the operating system run smoothly on the somewhat outdated hardware theses devices pack.

It’s important to note that this tweet does not cover other markets. Samsung has already confirmed that owners of the Note 2 will receive the Lollipop update in Finland and Poland in the not-too-distant future.

Are you disappointed with Samsung’s decision to skip Lollipop on the Galaxy S3 and Note 2 in the UK? Please let us know your thoughts in the section below.
