Google just sent press invitations out for an event to be held on July 24th, hosted by Android and Chrome chief Sundar Pichai.

Not much is known regarding Google’s plans for Android 4.3, so we’ll have to see what kind of surprises Sundar has up his sleeves. The event starts at 9AM PT and will be livestreamed on YouTube
