Ubuntu Touch will be released on October 17

Although Ubuntu Edge did not receive sufficient funding, the operating system Ubuntu Touch continues to evolve. One of the staff of Canonical, Nicholas Skaggs, in his blog reported that the month of the final testing of Ubuntu Touch began. It is assumed that the first time, the operating system will be distributed as firmware for existing devices, such as the Galaxy Nexus, Nexus 4, Nexus 7, and Nexus 10. Everyone can participate in testing by installing Ubuntu Touch on their device.
Canonical’s own device is scheduled for release next year.
