The THL T100 Monkey King 2 a.k.a. THL T100S was first introduced to Filipinos last December 2013. From that time until this thing came out, there is no official words from Novo 7 Tech on a possible update.
The known THL distributor in the country finally announced that the update for the first announced octa-core is now available named as NV7UI which has features like the SMS LED notification, all in one gesture app, apps share via Bluetooth, new apps, updated baseband version, Xperia launcher, file manager with a new look, Kitkat theme, customizable app drawer and launcher settings, more gesture heavy features, hide app function and improved WiFi reception.
Many T100S users will be glad for the update as I saw a number of complaints online for the device’s poor reception on WiFi. The sad part is you can only update the smartphone if you will gonna visit their branch in Lucky Chinatown Mall instead of an OTA update. This is quite a hassle for those who are too far from the said Novo 7 Tech branch.
