Android Lollipop pops.



It can be said that literally every phone user has come across an Android device at some point, some with user experience too so when we pick to look at the new Android version released then your interest should even in the slightest be piqued.

Named Lollipop (Android 5.0) it doesn’t come as a surprise as some of you already follow the naming convention of the Android platform. For those not in the know, let’s bring you up to speed shall we.
We’ll take it from here;
-          Donut (we don’t even remember any device that used this version, that’s how old it was).
-          Éclair (…hmmm, naah! Don’t ring a bell either).
-          Froyo (ooh ooh! we know this one, you’d be surprised quite a number of devices still run on this. Version 2.2 we suppose).
-          Gingerbread (version 2.3, seemingly, this was one of the most stable Android versions released).
-          Honeycomb (V3.0, was not popular as it was released mostly for tablets at the time though).
-          Ice Cream Sandwich (V4.0, the popular ICS update brought major innovative looks to the Android platform).
-          Jelly Bean (V4.1 - 4.3, this version started the whole Project Butter thing on the Android platform, the ‘butter’ reference was in relation to how buttery smooth the UI was…well it was, mostly).
-          KitKat (V 4.4, partnering with the popular chocolate candy brand KitKat Chocolates, this version brought improved security additions to the Android platform…then there was Snowden).
-          Lollipop (V5.0, just released and fresh out the pot, this…well, that’s what this post is about).

We’ve seen the preview and we have got to say that Android is bringing the heat when it comes to design, creativity and Productivity. Launched with the new 2014 Nexus line of devices, the update will gradually be seeded via OTA first to previous Google devices (from Nexus 4 up it seems) and then your device company but it should be noted as Android users and follows should have noticed, not all devices will automatically get this update as that is your device company that decides which product does and which doesn’t.
 
Verdict: innovation drives the world and we do commend Google on this new release. We can hope it exceeds our expectations more than less.
Well done Google Android, we must say…now we want a Lollipop (*those candy images*).
