While Google's Android operating system has become one of the most popular mobile-based OS around the planet, the build of Android is different in different devices, ranging from oldest to the newest. However, there's some good news for all those looking to upgrade your devices.

According to reports, Google is said to be testing the next version of the Android operating system, dubbed version 4.4.3. Apparently, the new version of the operating system is being tested on the new Samsung Galaxy S5 and the Galaxy S4 LTE.

Android 4.4.3 Currently Being Tested on Samsung Galaxy S5

Sam Mobile, which carried the story about the next version of Android exclusively, states that this "yet-to-be announced version of Android is currently being tested on the Galaxy S5 (both the Exynos and Snapdragon models) and the LTE-A variant of the Galaxy S4 (GT-I9506A)."

The report further claims that Android 4.4.3 is currently only being integrated with Samsung's own software and features, and hence it is likely that it will not be made available for a month or so. Moreover, Google is also expected to probably roll out the update by the end of this month.

The update, which could also arrive sometime in June before Google I/O, "after which we can expect to see it rolling out to the Galaxy S5 and other devices," is also in news for simutaneously being tested on the Galaxy S4 LTE-A.

Sam Mobile states that "from what we know, Android 4.4.2 is actually being tested on that device, but since it hasn't rolled out yet, we might see the handset skipping directly to 4.4.3 in the future."
