Meanwhile, it is being speculated that Google's Nexus devices will receive an impending Android 4.4.3 update, while a Samsung handset bearing the model number SM-G906 recently appeared in AnTuTu benchmark which suggests the phone was running Android 4.4.3 out of the box.

Given the scarce details about the impending KitKat update, it is still uncertain if Samsung will actually roll out Android 4.4.3 to its flagship devices or consider skipping it altogether to embrace the widely speculated Android 4.5 update aka Lollipop.

As Android 4.4.3 is expected to feature minor bug-fix updates, it is unlikely to include any feature changes or improvements.

If there is any truth to the speculation, then Samsung could be the first Android handset maker to confirm Android 4.4.3 KitKat on its official documentation.

Nevertheless, a recent tweet via official Twitter handle @samsung_dev also supports this claim, suggesting that Android 4.4.3 could indeed be in the works.

Here is what the official tweet says:
