HTC working on the Jelly Bean update for One XL and One S

The HTC One XL and One S might be among the first HTC devices to get updated to the newest version of Android, 4.1 Jelly Bean. Australian carrier Telstra specifically updated the HTC One XL and One S status to “preparing” for the Jelly Bean update, but gave no specific date.




Anyway, this is good news for the two higher-end HTC Androids, but still not too far away from HTC’s previous statement that it is “excited” about bringing the new version of Android to the handsets. At least, if not certainty, this gives us more hope that the update will arrive sooner rather than later. 

Just after the Jelly Bean was announced, the Taiwanese company issued a generic press release saying it’s “excited” about it, wowing to support it. The new information isn’t much more specific but it gets us (and HTC) in the right direction, keeps the ball rolling and gives us something to write about on slow news days
