‘When will my device get the latest Android 4.4.2 KitKat?’ This is the question that we have repeatedly heard in the last few weeks and now we finally have great news for Verizon HTC One owners as well. Bach in December, Verizon HTC One has received the Android 4.3 OTA update, but now it’s time to be talking about something even more tempting than that. The KitKat update has already started rolling out, but gradually, so you don’t have to be worried in case of not receiving the this notification up to now.

You just have to wait a little longer for that to happen or you can, manually check for the update in the Settings Menu (in the About > Software updates > Check now section).
