Many Android fans like to stick with Google's Nexus smartphones and tablets, since the devices are guaranteed to receive Android OS updates directly from Google. Manufacturers like Samsung, LG, and HTC have to then test the update on their hardware, works with skins like Samsung's TouchWiz, LG's Optimus, and HTC's Sense UI, which they lay over Android to make it easier to use and add extra features. This process coupled with carrier testing leaves many Android devices running older versions of the OS and reason for fragmentation.
