HTC just confirmed that a majority of its recent smartphones will get upgraded to Android Jelly Bean. The handsets mentioned include the HTC One X, HTC One XL and HTC One S. This is great news for owners of HTC devices seeing that almost no other manufacturer has committed to an upgrade path for their phones.
HTC’s global online communications manager Jeff Gordon had this to say: “We know HTC fans are excited to get their hands on Google’s latest version of Android. At this point in time, we can confirm that we have plans to upgrade our HTC One X, HTC One XL and HTC One S to Jelly Bean. Please stay tuned for more updates regarding device upgrades, timing and other details about HTC and Jelly Bean.”
Android Jelly Bean brings several major improvements to the popular OS including what is called Project Butter which should help in making the user interface more fluid by ensuring everything works at a smooth 60fps.
