ASUS confirms full Jelly Bean update schedule

Asus has told its customers that the latest Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update will be available on selected Transformer devices.




Though the manufacturer names only three - the Asus Transformed Pad, Asus Transformer Pad Prime and Asus Transformer Pad Infinity – as definite suitors for the update, Asus does go on to add that it is looking at whether any of its older devices will also be compatible with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.




“We are pleased to announce that we will be updating many of our tablet products to Android 4.1, Jelly Bean. The ASUS Transformer Pad, ASUS Transformer Pad Prime and ASUS Transformer Pad Infinity are all scheduled to receive an update to Jelly Bean in the coming months.

The Transformer lineup of tablets have had considerable success over the past year with ASUS creating a surprise hit with the original ASUS Transformer tablet with NVIDIA’s Tegra 2 dual-core processor and followed up with the Transformer Prime which was the first device on the planet to run the NVIDIA Tegra 3 quad-core processor. ASUS is also responsible for manufacturing the soon to be smash hit Google Nexus 7 tablet which we’ve got a full review of as well.
