Android 4.4.2 Rolling Out on Dell Venue 8 Now!

That’s right! Native, pure, unadulterated Kitkat on the Dell Venue 8, today! When I saw the update was 350MB, it could only mean one thing. :-) I must admit that 4.4.2 coming this soon is a huge surprise, especially considering Cyanogenmod doesn’t even have a stable KK build for my Galaxy S3 yet. If you’re in the market for a solid 8” Android tablet with zero bloat or extra (ugly) skins, the Dell Venue 8 can’t be beat at $180. Yeah I work for Dell, but trust me this thing is awesome. All the reasons we normally root our Samsung phones and tablets don’t exist here (getting rid of bloat/ ugly skins)… it’s native Android!! I don’t have root and frankly don’t care at all…

My only complaint at this point is the navigation buttons still being in the middle. I would much prefer these were together on the far left side.
