Android of 2012

2011 would be considered as the year of evolution for the Android technology as we interacted with the first Android based tablet and had Honeycomb taken over by Ice Cream sandwich .There are more surprises that Google has planned  for the year ahead .

More phones and tablet’s

We'll see a lot of new Android phones and tablets in 2012, many of which will be high-profile devices like Samsung's new Galaxy S III phone .

To be specific we will see

Quad-core Tablets

Quad-core processor by Nvidia powered Trasformer Prime in the last month and is expected to support more devices in the coming year .Dual core is not going out but we have a new top tier established .

Quad-core phones

The technology will no longer be limited to tablets only but will be making it’s way to the mobile technology . Qualcomm has a quad-core chip of its own in the works, too, and reportedly plans to ship phones with the processor by the end of the year.

HTC edge is expected to be the first phone using the Quad-core processor .

Ice Cream Sandwich on many more phones -- and tablets, too.

Watch for a slew of upgrades toAndroid 4.0 as the year rolls on, with both phones and tablets tasting Google's latest creation .  If past Android upgrades are any indication, once that first wave of rollouts gets underway, the pace will start to pick up pretty quickly.

Google TV

Samsung and LG are working on  new "smart televisions" built around the Google TV platform. Whether they'll fare better than the initial Google TV offerings remains to be seen, but one way or another, something fresh should be coming along soon.

Android-powered appliances

A new initiative called "Android @ Home" promises to bring Android-connected appliances into our lives, with everything from lights to dishwashers interacting directly with our Android devices. As they didn’t turned up last year so it is expected to come up this year anytime .

An Android upgrade alliance

Android Upgrade Alliance (a creation of Google) the  group was said to be a collection of carriers and manufacturers -- initially including Verizon, HTC, Samsung, Sprint, Sony Ericsson, LG, T-Mobile, Vodaphone, Motorola, and AT&T -- that would commit to providing timely OS upgrades for all new phones and tablets during their first 18 months on the market. Not much has come up on this although some manufacturers are providing updates and others not as the phones become obsolete .

Jelly beans : Android 5

We'll probably see some incremental upgrades to ICS over the months to come. Google frequently rolls out fixes and feature additions to its Android platforms in between the major launches, and odds are, ICS will be no exception.
