The 5.3 inch Samsung Galaxy Note phone tablet hybrid has already been pushed updates to the international version. The current update is said to be huge with many improvements, tweaks and changes for this great new device. The biggest of the update features is the new “one handed typing option”.

Those of us in the US have been waiting patiently for the Galaxy Note to hit AT&T but in the mean time international users are getting fixes and updates to the device already. This update still leaves the device running Android 2.3 Gingerbread but does add a fifth row of keys to the keyboard and the one hand keyboard allows you to place it to the left or right and can be seen in the image above.

Some of the other notable features that have been added to the device include:

• Changes to Brightness levels
• Lockscreen tweaks
• Keyboard options added
• Torch app added for LED flashlight

We cant wait to see this device in the US and are happy to see all of the improvements before we get it so that the bugs are ironed out before our hands get dirty. We will let you know as more information comes available and as always please let us know anything you notice in the update.
