Samsung Galaxy Nexus will be the first phone to get Android 4.1 Jellybean

21 June, 2012 Android JellyBean

The Google Play Store has updated its listing of the GSM Galaxy Nexus in the devices section, and for a little while checking out it said "The latest smartphone from Google, soon the first phone with Android 4.1 Jell...". That would seem to make it a closed case that we'll be seeing Jellybean introduced next week, and that it will be Android 4.1 JellyBean release, in the same vein as the change between Éclair and Froyo from 2.1 to 2.2., and Froyo and Gingerbread (2.2 to 2.3).

The image in the checkout area has changed too; the phone in the image has a new background and a glassy Google Search widget, which suggests that there is a minor visual refresh coming with Jellybean.

While Jellybean seems to be confirmed, the fact that this is leaking out for the Galaxy Nexus suggests that another rumor may not pan out as expected; 4.1 had been described as a tablet-oriented update, but if the phone UI is getting a visual refresh then it suggests that it may not be a completely trivial update for Android handsets.
