Android 4.4.3 KitKat Release Update: Release and Top Features to Expect
The Android 4.4 KitKat has made an impression - both good and bad. According to previous reports, the Android 4.4 KitKat update can be considered as Google's attempt to fix fragmentation among its devices. The new operating system can be used even in older and lower end Android devices. However, with the number of problems reported about the update, the company was forced to issue two new updates: the Android 4.4.1 and the Android 4.4.2. As problems do not seem to stop despite the series of upgrades, it appears Anroid 4.4.3 KitKat may be in the works already.
