Android users are most concerned about the current issue whether their phones are able to upgrade to the latest version of the system, and when to upgrade. HTC said that if your phone is released in 2010, the phone will be likely upgrade to Froyo, including Desire, Droid Incredible, EVO 4G , MyTouch Slide as well as other phones will be released in the future, they all have the opportunities to upgrade to Android 2.2. In addition, Nexus One has been used to test new system, Google must make their own brand mobile phone upgrade.
Here’s the official word:
“If your phone was launched this year, we will most likely provide an upgrade for it to the Froyo version. This includes popular models like the Desire and Droid Incredible as well as hotly anticipated phones like the Evo 4G, MyTouch slide and upcoming models. We will announce a full list of phones and dates once we are closer to launching the upgrades. We are working closely with Google and our other partners to ensure we have the earliest access to everything we need to provide a complete and solid Sense experience on Froyo. We expect to release all updates in the second half of this year but can’t be more specific yet.”
HTC’s argument is quite interesting, although some models are listed, but “most likely” maybe means that there are some phones may not upgrade. It also can be thought that the phone launched before may also be able to be upgraded, while the date of upgrade is still unknown.
What’s more, HTC said that the Sense interface may be added in the Froyo. With Sense interface, does the phone work better than before or not? And when will G3 phone with Android 2.1 be official release? There is still no answer.
