LG Optimus G possibly going from Android 4.1.2 to 4.4.2 KitKat this Summer

The long-neglected LG Optimus G is purported to be getting a huge update to the latest, greatest Android 4.4.2 KitKat OS sometime this summer. French carrier SFR is said to be getting the KitKat update this Summer which gives us a little hope that the North American versions will get a little love as well.

I actually have an LG Optimus G and thought it to be better than the Nexus 4 mainly because I liked the build and construction plus it can manage LTE connections without any tweaking. My Optimus G has been collecting dust mostly because it seemed to have been forgotten by LG in terms of updates (that and the Rogers LG Pad have made me leery of LG's commitment to support and provide updated software on their devices). KitKat will certainly breathe new life into one of the first LTE-enabled quad-core Android superphones. Make it happen LG!
