Samsung undecided on whether to release Android 2.3 for Galaxy S

UPDATE: Samsung Mobile India’s Twitter account has confirmed about the Gingerbread update.

Despite Nexus S and Galaxy S sharing similar specs, Samsung has told Pocket Lint that they’re contemplating whether to develop and release a Gingerbread update for its Galaxy S device.

Samsung says they’ll “review the possibility of implementation of such new version to the existing Samsung products.” The review, if you’re wondering, will be based on many factors like “the overall effect of such Update to Samsung products, the system requirements, the structural limitations, and the level of cooperation from the component suppliers and the software licensors.”

Considering Galaxy S’ Froyo update that was released after some delay, the chances of updating phone to Gingerbread looks pretty slim.
