Tried Android M: a shy renewal, but necessary – Gizmodo in Spanish

Tried Android M: A renewal & # XF3; n t & # XED; measure, but necessary

New does not have to be radically different, not showy or flashy in a firm way. My first 5 minutes with Android M’s have spent believing in Lollipop was not because he had not updated. So no, again not much, but what there is (almost) everything better.

For now only be installed in the last two Nexus phones, the Nexus Nexus 5 and 6 and a tablet, the Nexus 10, here’s how to do it easily

Visual improvements:. few but important

In terms of appearance, and although as I said 90% is virtually identical, we have included some interesting news. The first one is the default clock shown with the screen locked. Now it is, to me I see it, more elegant and blends animation release. Developers in the menu can be activated a new feature that allows you to activate between a light in white, and a darker mode for menus. Looks like this:

The volume controls now allow finally completely mute the device without any additional control. Mutean the entire device except alarms. A new drop-down menu displays the same controls separate volume settings for each type of sound. This last part is not exactly new or innovative but appreciated see it implemented and

Changes in usability. Drawer applications controversial

The other big both visual and change the user experience has to do with the application drawer. Big changes here. Rather “ride” on the desktop now a drawer in the strict sense of the word, with its own designated area. The good: it has a search engine and automatically displayed at the top of the applications they use. The bad: it is, in my opinion, more uncomfortable than the previous model, aesthetic considerations aside

Another small detail: the selection of text to copy and paste is now much, much more precise. Part of these adjustments here and there that are maybe not too obvious at first sight but that will radically improve the user experience

In the application permissions are one of the biggest changes of all Android M. Perhaps one of the most needy as well. Now it is much easier to know which application is doing what how. This control is carried out mainly at two levels.



granular permissions for applications

Tried Android M: A renewal & # XF3; n t & # XED; measure, but necessary

The first is with a page showing global permission applications for each category (Camera, Microphone, SMS, Sensors, Location …) in this way is much more simple review for each of them if there is an application you should have specific access.

The second is a submenu for each application in which we can adjust what we allow access and what not. It is much more granular and accurate. Once again we find ourselves facing a change that probably will not radically change the experience of using Android but, nevertheless, it should have been included for some time.

Two of the most important functions of Android M, Now on Tap and Android Pay, are not available in time to be tested in the preview.

How Android works M?

Tried Android M: A renewal & # XF3; n t & # XED; measure, but necessary

M Android works well? Yes and no. Yes, it is usable and can be tested without problem but not as the primary operating system, no, there is no question of performance in a preview still so green and no, you can not draw any conclusions yet. In my case the random reboots have been a constant, the start button does not work, the tablet is about to take to burn the heat generated and the duration of the low battery in freefall.

Soon to say, perhaps, but so far all we have seen seems to indicate that in a few years we’ll talk about Android M as the turning point of maturity, Android as a platform. No need to innovate so radically and add new jet functions (although some continue to be needed). Instead, grinding and polishing, polishing and polishing. The same, but working better.
