Owners of the Samsung-manufactured Google Nexus 10 will be happy to learn that Google announced Wednesday that Android 4.4 KitKat has been released for the tablet.
"Starting today, Nexus 7 (2012 and 2013) and Nexus 10 will be getting a tasty update to Android 4.4, KitKat. Stay tuned, Nexus 4 and Nexus 7 versions with mobile data will be getting the update soon!" Google wrote on Google Plus.
Nexus 10 owners can manually check for the KitKat update by going to in the Settings menu and checking for updates, but those too impatient to wait can head over to Droid-Life, where they've got the upgrade in a nice, tidy downloadable package along with instructions on how to install it.
Android 4.4 KitKat may just be the most exciting thing to happen to Android since Jelly Bean and Google Now released in 2012. KitKat offers a new, sleeker look, complete with more a more vibrant color scheme. There's the usual performance and security tweaks, sure, but it's what Google has done with Google Now that will delight those who love voice commands. Google Now has been integrated into more functions than ever, allowing the digital assistant to attempt to pull up relevant information before it's even asked.
