Few days ago Google Announced a new android OS version 4.3 JellyBean while some of us were expecting 5.0 Key Lime Pie but atleast the OS got updated The News is : India-based Micromax is currently testing Android 4.3 Jelly Bean. The first handset that might get the latest version of Android 4.3 Jelly Bean is none other than Canvas HD. The reveal was made by Twitter sensation @MMXNewscaster. It's not a silly prank played by @MMXNewscaster because the alleged image showing off Android 4.3 Jelly Bean is clearly visible. If it's true, Micromax would be the first Indian smartphone manufacturer to provide Android 4.3 Jelly Bean in India. What else? The tweet reads "Micromax testing Android Jelly Bean 4.3. #Canvas HD #ComingSoon." This could mean that the Canvas 4 hit maker is almost ready to release Android 4.3 Jelly Bean for Canvas HD. This news came as a surprise for many, as Micromax could have opted to release the latest Jelly Bean update for Canvas 4 rather than Canvas HD. Hence, GizBot contacted Micromax to confirm the news, where the officials responded to us by saying that, "at this point of time, we would not be able to provide any confirmation on the same." However, concluded that, "Wait and watch out for new updates.  Your Mobile But, if the update comes out on Canvas HD, it would also makes sense to push Android 4.3 Jelly Bean on a more popular handset in terms of broad base.

The update will bring native Hindi support for the first time.  we can confirm that Micromax Canvas HD users soon will be getting Android 4.3 Jelly Bean officially OTA (over-the-air) by this month or even earlier in just few days (the wait is unpredictable). As You all know Micromax has started providing the updates via OTA where users can manually update their phone OS .
