Bob Freking Leave a comment

Over at Google IO, the company talks about their affordable yet powerful streaming device called the Chromecast, and Google brags that it is indeed doing good so far and is picking up.

From here, Google will make finding apps optimized for Chromecast much easier for you. They also announced backdrop, so that you will still have content on your screen in a way even when it is on standby. On top of everything else, mirroring content, even the camera app, is now possible from your Android device.

We already have a hands-on of the Google Chromecast here, if you want to check it out.

Android L: major redesign, better performance in tow

Bob Freking Leave a comment

Over at Google IO 2014, the company has just teased the next version of their mobile operating system - Android L - and while we’re not yet hearing the ‘sweet’ name nor the version number, we are introduced to a major redesign and a performance boost in graphics coding, battery life and a lot more.

Android Lollipop

Google has talked a lot about the design in their keynote, describing the depths of the shadows and how Material Design can make it a lot more convenient for the user experience. The design will be incorporated across several platforms, making it uniform for Google’s new design language. We’ve seen new quick settings, a new keyboard and a lot more in this Android version – and the new runtime is also going to be ART for performance boosts. Project Volta, Google claims, will also aim to better battery life.

Developers will be working with Google on it soon, and we’re expecting the company to launch it with the official name and version number once it’s fully ready in its next event. As for now, we have a glimpse of what’s coming next for the little green robot.
