Motorola Driod RAZR, Droid Bionic & Xoom Updated to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich 6WKs

By Lynn Walford 10/25/2011 Tweet

Motorola Driod RAZR, Droid Bionic & Xoom Updated to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich 6WKsThe new ownership relationship with Google by Motorloa should mean faster updates and that's what the Motorola Twitter feed is showing.

Motorola has already comitted to updating some smartphones and tablets to Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich (ICS).

According to the Motorola on Twitter, "We'll be releasing devices for ICS 6 weeks after Google releases the final version of it."

Motorola also Tweeted, "DROID RAZR, BIONIC & XOOM will get ICS. Within 6 weeks of Google's public push, we'll confirm other devices to get ICS."

Android updates previously for Motorola  Droid smartphones and tablets were not as swift with some taking months.  Most of the delay usually is caused by carrier integration as well as added-on UI features by the Motorola.  Now that Motorola is owned by Google, it appears the integration and updates will be faster at least for their premier models.

HTC, yesterday, confirmed that they will HTC will determine which Android smartphones will get the update according to the hardware, performance and usability.

Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich combines tablet and smartphone functions and adds advanced features to Android such as face unlock, multitasking and NFC(see all features).

    Excuse my ignorance, but does this mean that there will be a software update available for these devices (to be done on an existing phone), or that you can buy a *new* phone with this updated software already on it?
