Looks like iPhone 5 owners aren't the ones getting a shiny new update today, as Verizon has begun pushing out an update to its version of the Samsung Galaxy Note II. The big difference between the two updates is that the Galaxy Note II's update is much, much larger than the iPhone's, which is actually just like the devices themselves.

According to Verizon's support documents, the Galaxy Note II's update weighs in at 246.5MB and features the build number JZO54K.I605VRAMC3. Two of the most notable parts of this update are a bump up to Android 4.1.2 as well as Multi-Window support for more apps, including YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Gmail and Google Maps. Some of the other big improvements include better Wi-Fi connectivity, a Notification Panel editing menu and support for the Samsung Smart Switch app. The full changelog for the I605VRAMC3 update is available at the bottom of this post.

Verizon hasn't made an official announcement regarding this update's rollout, but Droid-Life and several of the site's commenters say that they've already managed to get it installed. If you don't feel like waiting for the update to be rolled out to your neck of the woods, you can check for it manually by heading into Settings > About phone > System Updates. This looks like a pretty beefy update, so if you're rocking a Galaxy Note II that's got a "Verizon" tattoo on its home button, you may want to try and grab this sucker as soon as possible. Be sure to give us a shout once you've updated!
