Google officially unveils Android 4.3 Jelly Bean

Nexus 4

After weeks of speculation and leaks, the next version of Jelly Bean is finally official

Google has announced a new version of Android — 4.3 Jelly Bean — at its breakfast event in San Francisco today.

As expected, version 4.3 brings new features and tools for developers, including Bluetooth Low Energy support and new for devs to interact  with Android's notification center. There's also a new camera app for vanilla Android devices — the same one that's shipping in the new Google Play edition phones. Performance and responsiveness has also been improved across the board.

Primarily, though, this is another maintenance release for Jelly Bean, and the 4.3 release builds on what was already there in 4.1 and 4.2. Most of the new additions to the Android code base are focused on getting the OS prepared for connecting to wearable devices (with Bluetooth LE) and helping developers make even better applications.

Android 4.3 Jelly Bean should begin hitting Nexus devices very soon, so now's the time to start hammering that "Check for updates" button, if you're into that sort of thing.

We'll bring you more on the new release as it comes. In the meantime, share your thoughts down in the comments.
