Another feature seen in the video is Contextual Menu that allows users to access their most frequently used apps first, and with Contextual Tag, photos can be tagged with the date, location and weather.
Premium Suite also brings multi-view to the smartphone. This allows two apps to run on the screen at the same time. It will actually take the screen and split in into two parts. Auto Share Shot mode is another feature available with the update that allows users to share photos and videos instantly by tapping devices with NFC capabilities together.
Other features added with Premium Suite include Reader Mode that lets the user easily control the size of the text on their phone and share it, and Facebook Lock Ticker, which lets users view their Facebook news feeds on their lock screen.
The Galaxy S3 Android 4.1.2, JellyBean update began rolling out in the U.K. yesterday and is only available for the unlocked version of the device.
In the U.S., the regular Android 4.1, JellyBean update has rolled out for AT&T and Verizon users. There is no word yet of Premium Suite coming to the states. However, it should be the next major update to arrive for the S3 after Android 4.1.
