The latest version of Android has over 5,000 APIs and a new design approach called Material Design that is supposed to create a consistent feel across multiple devices including gadgets running Android Wear and vehicles equipped with Android Auto. The mobile operating system was previewed at Google I/O in June.
Google says that Lollipop is, “made for a world where moving throughout the day means interacting with a bunch of different screens—from phones and tablets to TVs. With more devices connecting together, your expectation is that things just work.”
The Material Design element has a more flat approach to the look on Android with bolder colors typography. Google also says that the UI is more responsive and intuitive with natural motions and realistic lighting elements including shadows.
Battery life on devices running Lollipop will be extended up to 90 minutes according to Google. A huge win anyone that has to recharge their smartphone multiple times a day.
Lollipop will be released to the public on Friday October 17. The first devices running the updated operating system will be the Nexus 9 tablet, Nexus 5 and Nexus 6 smartphones and the Nexus Player set-top box.
