Samsung Galaxy S Android 2.3 Gingerbread update incoming

Credit for this leak goes to Samsung Mobile India, which Tweeted in response to Galaxy S-wielding punters that its Android-running smartphone will be getting Android 2.3 Gingerbread. However, it neglected to mention when the 4in AMOLED blower would recieve the tweaked OS.

Gingerbread launched just last week, with the Android 2.3 update going out to game developers at the same time as Google’s 2.3-running Nexus S was announced. The Nexus S could be a direct clone of the Galaxy S, so it wouldn’t surprise us if the Korean firm was readying over-the-air updates for its entire line-up.

But it’s not the only phone-maker looking to Gingerbread, both LG and Sony Ericsson have said they will offer upgrades in the future, while HTC has said its current range of Android blowers will be getting Android 2.3 soonish.
