Android M ; new version of andriod

Android "M" is the working title of an upcoming release of the Android mobile operating system. First unveiled atGoogle I/O on May 28, 2015, Android "M" will focus primarily on incremental improvements and other feature additions.[1]

FeaturesEdit

Android "M" introduces a redesigned permission model: there are now only eight permission categories, and applications are no longer automatically granted all of their specified permissions at installation time. An opt-in system is now used, in which users are prompted to grant or deny individual permissions to an application when they are needed, such as accessing the camera or microphone. Applications remember their permission grants, and they can be adjusted by the user at any time. Only the applications compiled for Android "M" using its SDK will use the new permission framework, while all other applications will continue to use the previous permissions model.[1][2]
Android "M" provides native support forfingerprint recognition, allowing the use of fingerprints for unlocking devices and authenticating Play Store and Android Pay purchases; a standard API is also available for implementing fingerprint-based authentication in other applications. A new power management scheme known as "doze" reduces a device's background activity when the operating system detects that the device is not physically handled. Android "M" supports USB Type-C, including the ability to instruct devices to charge another device over USB. Android "M" also introduces "verified links" that can be configured to open directly in their specified application without further user prompts.[1][2]Android "M" also has native support for the 64-bit ARMv8 architecture.

ReleaseEdit

The Android "M" developer preview was released on May 28, 2015, for theNexus 5 and Nexus 6 phones, theNexus 9 tablet, and the Nexus Playerset-top box, under the build number MPZ44Q.[1][3]

SDK and APIsEdit

The Android "M" developer tools are available in the SDK Manager under API level "MNC".

Asus zenfone 5

Asus zenfone 5 ; Review VERDICT It was a long time coming, but the Asus ZenFone 5 is a great mid-range Android device with a lovely screen, excellent performance and a decent camera that just needs the latest version of Android and a bigger battery. PROS: Lovely bright screen Great performance Attractive UI CONS: Below average battery Out of date Android version Future updates uncertain Ratings in depth Introduction and design Key features Interface and Performance Battery and the essentials Camera Verdict All It feels like an awful long time ago that Jonney Shih, the Chairman of Asus, stood up at CES in Las Vegas and with no shortage of drama announced the new ZenFone range. And it is no surprise that it feels like an age has passed, since it has been eight whole months between the announcement of the ZenFones and the units being made available for pre-order by Asus in the UK. This is not the first time that Asus has announced products a...

LG G6

One of the few design decisions that remained was the dual camera on the back, only this time it sits flush with the phone's body. Below that is the signature sleep/wake button that doubles as a fingerprint sensor. It's been years since LG made this a mainstay of its high-end phones, and I appreciate the placement. The sensor was always within reach of my index fingers, but it occasionally needed a few clicks to unlock. Meanwhile, you'll find the volume keys on the left side, directly opposite the microSIM and microSD card slot (which takes up to 2TB of additional storage). You'll probably need the latter too. In the US, the G6 comes with 32GB of storage, only 19GB of which are available once you crack open the box. There's a USB-C port on the bottom, a headphone jack up top and that's really it. Well, except for the G6's claim to fame: the display. Since the screen is the single biggest change to LG's G Series formula, let's dig a little d...
