the version of android is too old, wouldnt recommend unless you can upgrade to 4.x

Agree on the Android version. Many of the useful (worth installing and keeping) apps won't run on it.

Isn't that a software update issue or is the OS hardcoded?

The manufacturer needs to build and release a OS update for it. If it's still on 2.3 it's unlikely that it will ever get newer versions.
