New Android Version--Android 4.1 Jelly Bean Comes To Us
Click:1339 Date:12/14/2012 2:00:57 PM

 

Instead of jumping ahead a full version number from 4.0 to 5.0 with Android this year, Google

has wisely decided to slow down the new feature freight train just a little, instead expanding

uponthe solid foundation introduced with Android 4.0: Ice Cream Sandwich last year.

We've got the all new version of Jelly Bean coming soon, in the shape of Android 4.2, and

we'll update this review with that information when we get it... but for now, feast your eyes on

what the latest version of Google's OS is all about.

Although this decision may have more to do with slow adoption of ICS (Android 4.0 is available

on roughly 10 percent of devices even a year after its unveiling), the iterative release allows

Google to catch its breath while hopefully allowing carriers, developers and users alike the

chance to play catch-up.

 

Of course, that doesn't mean Google abandoned its traditional sugary confection-themed

naming scheme: The name's Bean… Jelly Bean… and its mission is to hone Android into a

leaner, meaner mobile operating system.

Where Android 3.0: Honeycomb was exclusive to tablets and Ice Cream Sandwich attempted

to port the slicker UI over to smartphones as well, Android 4.1 is intended to smooth out the

platform's remaining rough edges – while hopefully having more success at widespread adoption

than its predecessor did.

 

In the meantime, Google is seizing this opportunity to not only show OEMs how Android

tablets should be done but also swat away unwelcome rivals forking its older mobile OS

as their own. Built in conjunction with Asus, Google begins shipping its own seven-inch

Nexus 7 tablet this month, the first device to come with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean preinstalled.

 

Will the changes in Jelly Bean be enough to finally make the ambitious goals of Google's

Mobile Handset Alliance a reality? Or will handset makers and carriers continue to bog down

 Android with their own skins, bloatware and other encumbrances?

We may not have the answers to those questions, but there's no denying that Android 4.1

Jelly Bean is the best version yet – assuming your device is capable of installing it in the first place.
