The Google Play Edition of the HTC One got the latest Android 4.4 KitKat update in November and it was quickly followed by the Developer Edition of the handset and its US Unlocked units.

However, until today large parts of Europe were stuck waiting for HTC to expand the rollout. Well, worry no more - the latest release has now started seeding on the Old continent.

The French SFR carrier was among the first to start seeding the Android 4.4.2 KitKat to the HTC One units on its network. This is the first EU HTC One getting the update, which means other European regions and carriers will be getting the KitKat treatment soon enough.

The new 4.4.2 update brings Android 4.4.2 and its improvements plus the latest Sense 5.5 UI. Your phone will become noticeably faster thanks to the new firmware. Hopefully it won't take long before the other European Ones get to taste KitKat.
