The UBports project through lead developer Marius Gripsgard informs Softpedia today on the immediate availability of the first Release Candidate of the upcoming Ubuntu Touch OTA-4 update for Ubuntu Phones.

The latest Ubuntu Touch update from UBports, OTA-3, was released last year near the Christmas holidays, but it was still based on Ubuntu 15.04 (Vivid Vervet), so if you though Ubuntu Phones are dead, think again, because the UBports team has been hard at work to bring you the OTA-4, which will be the first to rebase the operating system on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS (Xenial Xerus).
