Finally some good news for HTC One owners who purchased their devices through Verizon Wireless, as the Taiwanese handset maker confirmed the Android 4.3 Jelly Bean update will be deployed beginning this week.

However, HTC USA confirmed delivering Android 4.3 Jelly Bean on Verizon Wireless will be a two step process.

This means that starting this week HTC One owners will receive the first update for compatibility, whereas the actual Android 4.3 upgrade will be pushed some time in December.

HTC USA also mentioned Verizon HTC One devices are still on track for a late January Android 4.4 KitKat upgrade, even if the Android 4.3 update will arrive late in December.

So there you have it, HTC One will receive Android 4.3 Jelly Bean on Verizon in December and Android 4.4 KitKat by the end of January, 2014.
