Sprint customers who own the HTC EVO 4G LTE will be happy to know the Taiwanese handset maker has just confirmed the smartphone will receive the long-awaited Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update sometime in mid-February.

According to HTC USA Head Jason Mackenzie, the said upgrade will enter Sprint testing in mid-January and is likely to be go live for HTC EVO 4G LTE devices one month later.

The update was previously rumored for late 2013, but probably due to KitKat's release HTC's update schedule was too busy to include another Jelly Bean update for the EVO 4G LTE.

We will probably get more details on the upcoming Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update for HTC EVO 4G LTE in the next few weeks, so stay tuned for more info on the matter.
