HTC posts Android 4.1 Jelly Bean FAQ, One V and Desire C will not get Jelly Bean

We have bad news for people who have a Desire C or One V and were looking forward to an upgrade to Jelly Bean. It looks like HTC will be making 512MB of RAM the cutoff for minimum specs to run Jelly Bean. This of course isn't a Google enforced limit as the older Nexus S run Jelly Bean quite nicely on it's 512MB of RAM. This isn't totally a surprise as in both our review of the One V and Desire C we suspected that an upgrade to Jelly Bean would be a surprise given their respective hardware.

As expected, HTC reiterated that the One X and One S will get Jelly Bean with Sense 4+. Check out the full statement below.

HTC Desire C Review

Not too long ago, we took a look at HTC One V, the lower end offering of the critically acclaimed HTC One Series. While we thought that the One V was as good as it could get in terms of bang for buck HTC seems to be poised to beat their own offering with the HTC Desire C, even if this seems contradictory to HTC's claim to stay away from Low-End phones. Today, we have a look at the HTC Desire C, a tiny sized smartphone named after flagship phones of yesteryear in a sub-$200 offering.

HTC Desire C to head to Rogers?

Looks like the HTC Desire C might be headed to Rogers according to a leak to MobileSyrup. The Desire C isn't part of the One Series but has some similar traits like Sense 4.0 and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich but is much more lower end in terms of hardware. It sports a 3.5 inch HVGA (320x480) screen, 600MHz processor, 512MB of RAM and a 1230mAh battery.
