Looks like Samsung is wrapping up its rollout of Android 4.3 Jelly Bean for the popular Galaxy S3 handset as the update has finally hit India.

Samsung Galaxy S3 owners in India should soon receive over-the-air download notifications for build I9300XWUGML4. Not everyone will be able to snag the new update immediately, since Android updates are pushed out in batches, but the wait shouldn't be too long.

The Indian Samsung Galaxy S3 Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update weighs in at 408MB, so downloaders will want to have their devices charged and tethered to a Wi-Fi connection.

Among the usual improvements that a new Android version brings, the update also contains numerous TouchWiz features previously only found on the newer Galaxy S4 and Galaxy Note 3 handsets. Indian Galaxy S3 owners will also be happy to know that it brings Bluetooth 4.0 LE support to the device, meaning that they can finally fully connect and interact with the Samsung Galaxy Gear smartwatch.
