Samsung kicked off the deployment of Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update for Galaxy S4 (GT-I9505) yesterday and rumors suggested the upgrade would be available for the non-LTE version only next week.

Earlier today, we reported on a “final build” of Android 4.3 for Galaxy S4 (GT-I9500) that leaked online and now it looks like the official update is live.

According to SamMobile, Samsung Galaxy S4 (GT-I9500) owners can now download and install the Android 4.3 Jelly Bean upgrade in Russia.

Keep in mind that the update is rolled in stages, so it might take a while until it reaches all countries. Just like the Galaxy S4 LTE version, those who own the non-LTE model can update to Android 4.3 Jelly Bean OTA (over the air) or via Samsung Kies desktop software.
