The Nexus 5 isn’t the only device to feature Android 4.4 KitKat any more. Today, Google began rolling out Android 4.4 KitKat to Wi-Fi only Nexus tablets. This applies to both the 2012 and 2013 models of the Nexus 7 tablet.

Owners of Nexus tablets with cellular data will have to wait a bit longer before they get their update to KitKat. Google states the updates are coming but are taking a little while longer.

Devices in Google’s Nexus program always get Android updates first but non-Nexus devices will have to wait. Phone maker HTC promises an update to Android 4.4 KitKat to all capable devices within 90 days. Samsung has not committed to a release date as of yet. Phone manufacturers often have to work closely with carriers in order to push out updates to their phones, taking more time.
