Android 4.1 aka Jelly Bean

Android 4.1 aka Jelly Bean Has Arrived: should you care?

Android 4.1, also more commonly known as Jelly Bean, is Google’s latest Operating System upgrade to their mobile platform.  If you are planning to purchase a Google Nexus 7, you can expect it to be preloaded with this latest version of Google’s OS.

For those wondering if they are affected, it was also recently announced by Google that the following phones/tablets will likewise be upgraded sometime middle of July:

• Motorola Xoom
• Nexus S
• Galaxy Nexus

Mobile and tablet stores in the United Kingdom however are saying that the Android 4.1 will be run exclusively by Google Nexus 7 for the next 4 months. So if you are expecting the upgrade in July as per Google’s announcement, you might be disappointed. By November, however, you can expect most if not all of the major players in the Android market to jump in the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean bandwagon.

Android 4.1 aka Jelly Bean

Samsung essentially made a generic statement that they will evaluate any new versions of the Android operating system. Upon review, should they decide to implement it to their existing products, it will be released upon completion of development. They didn’t confirm if Android 4.1 will in fact be loaded on their Nexus S and Galaxy Nexus in mid-July.

Motorola  and HTC made similar statements. Essentially they both have not confirmed that they indeed will have the upgrade by mid-July as announced by Google.

LG did confirm that all of their compatible 2012 handsets will be upgraded for sure. However, no specific release date was announced.

As for the rest of the Android world (i.e., Acer, Asus, Huawei, Panasonic, Zony, ZTE, etc) we’ll just have to wait and see. We will keep you updated.

As we all wait for the Jelly Bean upgrade to hit our mobile devices, the bigger question most people are asking is: Do I really want this upgrade?  See our Android 4.1 evaluation and decide for yourself.

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean Top New Features

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean, the latest Android Operating System by Google is out. If you are among those who have been waiting for this upgrade, below are the highlights on its more popular new features.  See out facts post to find out more about Android 4.1.

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean Top New Features

Speed

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean is dubbed the fastest version of Android ever released by Google. It utilizes not just double but triple buffering. This is especially noticeable in the rendering of graphics, animation, and even scrolling and paging. More than speed, it offers users a much smoother, more synched up interaction with their devices. And if that is not enough, it is even equipped with the capability to anticipate your next touch.

Voice Search

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean now boasts of an enhanced voice search capability.  We did some random testing and we have to say, it puts iPhone’s Siri to shame. More often than not, the latter instructs you to search the web when it fails to produce a result for your voice query.  Google does not only produce the best match to your request, it also displays relevant/alternative results.

Google Now

With this feature, Google keeps track of your habits and interests and based on these will serve you with relevant information, for example, traffic, weather, directions, etc.

Smart App Updates

Receiving App updates is now much easier and faster with this Android 4.1 Jelly Bean feature. When an app developer releases an update, Google only sends the bits that changed in the app instead of sending the whole APK. This translates to over 65% savings in bandwidth usage, given most app updates are normally 1/3 that of the entire APK.

More

Other cool features include:

•  Ability to save contact photos in higher resolution of up to 720×720
• Sharing of photos, videos, etc made so much easier with Android Beam
• Apps resize automatically based on available space

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean Easter Egg

Finally, in keeping with tradition, a Jelly Bean shaped “Easter egg” is hidden in this new operating system. As you probably already guessed, just as in previous versions, you can make it come out if you repeatedly tap on the version number in settings. And if you press the Jelly Bean’s red cheeks a bunch of colorful jelly beans would start floating on your screen. Try flicking them and see what happens.

Android 4.1 Jelly Bean does have a lot of cool features to offer, making the upgrade well worth the wait.
