Intel-Atom based Lava Xolo X900 is getting updated to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich
The Lava Xolo X900 is destined for the Indian market and it’s not a blockbuster device, but the fact that it is getting updated to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich still matters, because the Xolo X900 is based on an Intel Atom chip.
So that’s good news for the Medfield platform and the couple of phones running on those chips released in other countries as well.
We take this as a hint that other Atom-running smartphone will get bumped up to ICS.
“We are pleased to announce that Android v4.0 ICS upgrade is now available on XOLO X900. We thank all our XOLO X900 customers for their patience and truly hope that the ICS upgrade will make your smartphone experience even more enjoyable.”
The update is available over the air, but you can also get it by hooking your device via USB.

We already have an Intel Atom-based device running on Ice Cream Sandwich and the performance is pretty impressive (not perfect, though). The Motorola Droid RAZR M for Europe got released with ICS and the promise of Jelly Bean.
