HTC One X+ Android 4.2.2, JellyBean Update Rolls Out with Sense 5
The HTC One X+ Android 4.2.2, JellyBean update with Sense 5 is now available for download.
The update is only available in Taiwan at this time, but will be rolling out in other countries very soon. Android 4.2.2 brings some new features to the device including Daydream, new lock screen widgets, BlinkFeed, an updated music app, an enhanced camera app, and Quick Settings Toggle.
The upgrade is also expected to improve overall battery life and the device will now show the exact battery percentage left in the status bar. It is about 484MB and a wider roll out is expected to happen in the next 30 days.
The HTC One X+ launched back in Nov. of last year.
AT&T first announced the device in Oct. and also confirmed that it would launch with two other HTC smartphones: the HTC One VX and HTC Windows Phone 8X.
The HTC One X+ comes equipped with a 1.7GHz quad-core Tegra 3 processor, 2,100mAh battery with six hours more talk time, 64GB of storage, and Android 4.1, JellyBean with HTC's custom Sense 4+.
The One X+ is 67 percent faster than the original with LTE. It also comes in black, eliminating the white and charcoal gray colors that the One X came in.
The HTC One X series was the predecessor for the current HTC One model. HTC also plans to launch the HTC One Max later this year as a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 competitor. The HTC one is currently available for most major U.S. carriers.
The HTC One X and One have a very similar look and the company's new phablety device is expected to follow in their footsteps. Pictures leaked earlier this week proving that point, as the device seen in them was basically a bigger version of the HTC One.
