HTC One gets Android 4.2.2 OTA in the UK and the Netherlands
8
We can imagine HTC One owners in the US are beginning to lose patience (to put it nicely), as their European counterparts continue to receive the green light on the next iteration of Android Jelly Bean. As of today, if you own an HTC One and live in the UK or the Netherlands you should head straight to Settings → About → Software Updates → Check now and get the 416MB update OTA.
Exactly when the new version will reach the coast of the US is yet unknown, but we imagine it's next in line.

Exactly when the new version will reach the coast of the US is yet unknown, but we imagine it's next in line.
