| denied some ICS |
Samsung has stated that it has no plans to upgrade the Samsung Galaxy S and the original Samsung Galaxy Tab to Android 4.0 , ice cream sandwich because of touchwiz. Samsung has said that it requires more RAM/ROM and has compared it with the Samsung Nexus S which also features the same set of hardware and is receiving the ICS update as of now. Samsung has said that both these devices won't be able to run the 'experience enhancing' software.
Samsung has also said that the Nexus S runs the 'basic' android system while the Galaxy S has to cope up with touchWiz, video calling software, carrier services and in some markets mobile TV. Denying the Galaxy S with the ICS update is clearly not a good step taken by Samsung, the device sold around 10 million units.
