Samsung started rolling out an update in Europe earlier this week to improve the performance on the Snapdragon variant of the Galaxy S5, and now the same update is going out to the Exynos-powered variant. The update has gone live in countries like India, and like the Europe update, solely features performance enhancements while being around 200 MB in size and carrying build number XXU1AGN3. As always, you can grab it over the air once it becomes available in your region, or try to force it to show up immediately from the Settings » About phone » Software updates menu. Thanks, Samkit!
