Handsets that have so far been released in Sweden with Android is version 1.5 and 1.6 of the operating system. The snacks are now much about that Android 2.0 will do our mobile life as much funnier and better. But what is so much better with Android 2.0, and will be able to upgrade? I saw that “a98davny just wrote a comment on here that I should explain a bit more about exactly what 2.0 means. Should make an effort.
At first only: Motorola Droid sold already in the U.S. with Android 2.0. For example, the popular Android handset HTC Hero (which is the most sold Google mobile phone here in Sweden) will be able to download an upgrade to the Android 2.0 soon, it announced the HTC via their Twitter feed for a few weeks ago. Mid-December is the date that the said rumor.
The reason that it takes a while for Android 2.0 will the Hero is that you should put on its interface “Sense UI” including Facebook integration, on top of Android 2.0.
Well, with Android 2.0 you get:
* Voice control, which seems very popular in the U.S., but Google has not yet been fixed so that Android will understand when you talk Swedish, so here we learn enough not to care so much about it at this time.
* Multi-Touch, so that the monitor can detect up to three fingers on the screen display, which draws out images to zoom, control games with multiple parallel fingers on the screen, etc.
* Better camera functions.
* Even better browser.
* Improved Bluetooth (version 2.1), including support for sending files, etc., as annoying enough so far been lacking in the Android phones (but Sony Ericsson has built into the X10).
* Support for mobile log in to and sync with social services and e-mail accounts, such as Facebook (do not know if it works just as smart as, for example HTC Hero)
* An expanded search functionality, so that at once can search through everything in the whole cell phone, both SMS messages, address book, track lists, which in Spotify in a single query.
* Enhanced email support, for example, Exchange servers (This is already in such HTC Hero, but it is that HTC added it, it is not in the current Android system that sits in the Hero)
On the blog Androinica writes Evan Sellec moreover that HTC’s extra features for Android – what is called Sense, which is an additional “shell” in HTC Hero and Tattoo – yet it is so good, so that you do not have to grieve at that you may wait for Android 2.0. Yes, you can always console himself …
