Google and HTC have unveiled the HTC One “with Nexus Experience”
yesterday, saying it will be launched next month, running Android 4.2.2
Jelly Bean. “Subsequent software updates provided by Google” have been
promised, and it looks like the first update will be available very soon
after the handset’s launch.
Trustworthy HTC ROM developer
LlabTooFeR
has it that the One Nexus Edition will get Android 4.3 “a few weeks
after release.” Since the smartphone is going on sale starting June 26
in the US, this likely means Android 4.3 will be rolled-out sometime in
July.
Sure enough, Google hasn’t confirmed the existence of Android 4.3 –
which is probably still called Jelly Bean – but we’re all expecting it
to do it soon.
The HTC One with Nexus Experience will cost $599 (unlocked, of
course). Assuming it’s getting Android 4.3 in July, other smartphones –
including the Samsung Galaxy Nexus and Samsung Galaxy S4 Google Edition – should also receive the update that month. We’ll bring more on this as we get it.
