Android upgrade report.manufacturers on KitKat
1 min read

Android upgrades are always a touchy issue. Thanks to the platform,s open nature, manufacturers
can modify the software in any way they see fit and that means it falls upon their shoulders to
craft fresh updates with each OS release and get them out to existing devices.
Some manufacturers have gotten pretty good at the upgrade game, keeping customers in the loop
about their progress and making post sales support a priority. Other companies focus their
attention elsewhere and continue to keep customers on hold and sometimes in the dark for long
periods of time.
As a guy who maintains an evolving list of Android device upgrades, I see it all and now, it,s time
to put the data together and determine how well the various Android manufacturers are doing. This
report card will focus on the Android 4.4 KitKat release, which became available to manufacturers
just over three months ago, on October 31, 2013. The grades will be based primarily on each
company,s progress with its current flagship devices those that fall within the (for better or for
worse) standard 18 month window for ongoing support.
So let,s do this, shall we? Here,s how the major Android device makers are faring so far.
