HTC One, LG G Pad 8.3 GPE getting Android 4.4.2 KitKat

As you probably know Google recently unveiled a new polished release of the Android KitKat platform with the version number 4.4.2. And the good news is the update is already seeding to a couple of devices outside the Nexus family.

The Google Play Editions of the HTC One and the LG G Pad 8.3 are now getting the Android 4.4.2 treatment over the air. The update weighs in at just over 50MB and should already be waiting for you in your notification area. And in case it isn't, you can perform a manual check by going to Settings > About > System updates on either device.

As the minor change in the version number suggests, this isn't a major update and it mostly addresses bugs around the platform. Early adopters also notice a few minor UI tweaks, but the release is mostly about improving stability and tweaking performance.

If you happen to have one of the two lucky Google Play Edition devices, drop us a line in the comments, saying how you find your smartphone or tablet after the update.
