Nexus 4 spotted running Android 4.3 Jellybean

XDA forum user Chaleen has posted the above image found on a Nexus 4 in a mobile Expo in Thailand. The Android version number being 4.3 suggests that the newest iteration of Android, which was expected to be launched at the Google I/O a week back might actually be launched on the rumoured date of June 10th. More screenshots from the user below.

As expected, the name stays and so does the easter egg under the settings->about page. While not many screens are available, we think the notion is that 4.3 is going to be an incremental update like the 4.2 update. Obviously Nexus devices will be getting them first, including Nexus 4 and the Galaxy nexus of course.

The camera UI seems to have some changes in the quick shortcuts. Much better than before we’d say, the “press and reveal the dial” based UI was slightly a bit unintuitive.

We could expect the new build to roll out on the 10th of June, or at least we hope so. When it arrives, we will be sure to let you know the new features as well, so hang tight!
