Now the company is looking forward and have revealed which of their devices will receive the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean software update.
The list suggests that the Motorola Droid RAZR M, Motorola Droid RAZR HD and the Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX HD will be the first to receive the Jelly Bean update before the end of this year. The Motorola ATRIX HD, Motorola Photon Q 4G LTE, Motorola Droid RAZR, Motorola Droid RAZR MAXX, Motorola Droid 4 and the Motorola Droid Bionic will also be updated to Android 4.1.
The Motorola XOOM Wi-Fi has already been updated to Android 4.1 and has even received the latest Android 4.1.2 update. The 3G and LTE variants of the XOOM and the Motorola XOOM Family Edition will receive the update during this quarter.
It is great to see that Motorola has picked up their pace on Android updates, and hope the trend will continue in the coming months. Especially as we are getting set for Android 4.2 to be revealed at the Android Event next week.

Back when Motorola unveiled the new Motorola DROID RAZR M, Motorola DROID RAZR HD, Motorola DROID RARZ MAXX HD, they promised that all three devices would be quick to receive the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update before the end of the year.
Keep in mind that there is no stock ICS ROM nor has the DROID RAZR M been rooted, so you will not be able to revert back to your original version of Android if you install this leaked ROM.
[NOTE] We do not recommend installing custom or pre-release ROMs unless as it may result in loss of data or device malfunction if not installed properly. Please note that you will be proceeding at your own risk.
