South Korean mobile phone maker Samsung seems determined to enhance the experience people receive from its devices as much as possible.

A few days before May kicked off, the company brought to shelves a new Android-based mobile phone, the Samsung Galaxy S II, and it already delivered two software updates for it.

These are only minor software updates, but the fact that Samsung rushed to roll them out to its devices is proof of the company's commitment to user experience.

The first of these software updates was meant to make the Swype application work a little faster than before, it seems. Moreover, it was also intended to solve some connectivity issues with the smartphone.

As for the second software update Samsung already released to its Galaxy S II users out there, it was meant to fix issues with the handset's automatic brightness.

After updating the mobile phone, users would see the software version on their devices bumped to i9100XWKE2.

To perform the update, one would have to connect the mobile phone to a Windows-based desktop PC, and fire up the Kies application on the computer to search for the software.

One other thing that should be noted here would be the fact that the new software is rootable.

Those who like loading custom ROMs on their handsets should be able to safely update them to the new firmware version.

The Samsung Galaxy S II is the latest flagship Android handset from the South Korean mobile phone maker. Unveiled during the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, the handset was launched on shelves only in late April, after getting its dual-core application processor bumped up from 1Ghz to 1.2GHz.

The device sports a 4.3-inch touchscreen display, 16GB of internal memory, an 8-megapixel photo snapper on the back, microSD memory card slot, HSPA+ connectivity, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS receiver, and the like. It runs under Google's Android 2.3 Gingerbread operating system.

The Kies software is available for download from Softpedia as well, via this link.
