HTC has once again taken to Facebook to shed light on Android 4.0 updates for its line of smartphones.

The company has added three handsets, the HTC Incredible S, HTC Desire S, and HTC Desire HD, to the list of devices expected to see Ice Cream Sandwich in 2012. These will join other notable smartphones such as the HTC Amaze 4G, HTC Evo 3D, and HTC Rezound in getting 4.0 "later this year."

In addition to adding the new models, HTC has further clarified the time frame as to when other handsets will see the update over the coming weeks. According to the Facebook post, the Sensation, Sensation 4G, and Sensation XE phones are slated pick up their Ice Cream Sandwich by the end of March, followed "soon there after" by the Sensation XL.

Announced back in October, Ice Cream Sandwich has taken a few months to roll out to existing handsets. On the upside, though, HTC, Motorola, and Sony Ericsson have been rather transparent in their update plans, keeping their user base in the know.
