earlier this month, Google will having it’s I/O conference and will unveil the next big update of its own mobile operating
system, Android, at Google I/O –
its developer
Android is indeed due for a major update, as the latest one
happened over 8 months ago – Android 4.4 (KitKat).
Google’s latest Android “L” update is likely to be called
Lollipop, keeping with the company’s confectionary -based alphabetical naming
convention (Cupcake, Donut, Éclair, Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Ice Cream Sandwich,
Jelly Bean, KitKat).
Similar to the way Apple is rolling out iOS 8,
Android 5 will also be available this fall, giving hardware makers enough time
to include the mobile operating system in their holiday product lineup.
New in Android 5: revamped UI, 64-bits, wearable integration, Google Now,
Kill switch and Nexus 8.
