Hi, I'll be owner of a tablet, acer iconia a1 830, I wonder if there will be an update (Android 4.4 kitkat) for this tablet because it is a tablet that has recently come out, and I bought it thinking it this tablet is new, to see an update for this tablet.

    Also interested in this
    I just bought mine 4 days ago and I gotta say it's one GREAT product.
    The ad says it was upgradable to 4.4, so I reckon they WILL release an update soon.
    I just wish they could tell us when to expect it

    Yes, Acer has announced that it will get Kit Kat. They haven't announced a schedule though. All we can do is wait patiently. Smiley Happy

    I am very worried about heartbleed. I just set my tablet up last night and i really like its speed. But, i bought it to replace my pc while rehabing from spinal surgery. I am afraid to pay my bills using it.

    Download the Heartbleed app designed by Lookout Mobile Security from the Play Store, it should put your mind at rest.

    I checked and android 4.2.2 is not safe from heart bleed. I downloaded look out mountains heart bleed app. Works great.

    Hi All,

     

    I've confirmed with the US team that the Android 4.4 (Kit Kat) update is being worked on and will be released as an over the air update for the A1-830. While I don't have an ETA to provide, I will provide additional information when it comes available.

    Hi Acer-Cory, What about A1-810?

    That is my question too Acer-Cory? Will the A1-810 get Kit-Kat too? I really like this tablet and having that update will make it even better. Thanks!

    Hey Acer-Cory,

     

    It's been roughly a month since your last post, has there been any update on when a KitKat update will be available?

     

    Thanks!
