My Tab is not the Sprint version, I have the wifi only unit. I just got an over the air update to 4.4.2 yesterday. I don't see much difference, but I'm not sure what to expect. Can anyone enlighten me as to what new features to look for?

Anyone else get this OTA update yet?
 
One of the biggest changes, for me anyway, was now I can move a lot of stuff to the sd card and free up the internal memory.

Another interesting change is the multi-window feature. Swipe from the right margin and a list of apps compatible with the feature will appear open one of them, swipe again, and open a second app. They will both be on your screen, allowing you to copy from one to the other, compare contents of one to the other, etc. I hope more apps will become available for the multi-window.

The main changes are slight ui changes, the multi window features that allows you to have up to two apps open on the screen ( doesn't work for all apps), there is now an apps2sd feature, the battery seems much better for me, it definitely seems speedier and that's it for the most part.
 
What model is your Tab 3? Have an unlocked international version (SM-T211) and it's still stuck on 4.1.2.
