The option of Android 5.0 was raised, but nothing like that. The jelly beans with which Google will delight fans of its mobile ecosystem will be placed on the platform updates map as Android 4.1. This has been exposed through the content platform of the house for its terminals, Google Play, where it has been verified that the first device that will be available with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean will be the Samsung Galaxy Nexus. How could it be less, by the way.
It has been a user of the popular XDA Developer forum who discovered that, in the section of the store where you can buy terminals "" only those registered in the Nexus range "", the Samsung Galaxy Nexus was seen containing an interesting description: the that "soon it will be the first mobile with Android 4.1 Jelly Bean". In spite of everything, the evidence was not lavished too much on appearances, and soon after, the guys from Google corrected the lapse, removing the description that has already given us notable clues about the next Android.
Unfortunately, the release data for Android 4.1 Jelly Bean has not gone beyond the mere slippage shown on Google Play. On June 27, the annual event for developers of the Mountain View company, Google I / O, will begin, where news about the next operating system of the house will presumably be revealed. In any case, it does not seem likely that the update will arrive before the last quarter of the year, coinciding with the anniversary of the presentation of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.
However, it could be that Google gave the surprise in another direction. And it is that in the next days we could know the proposal of the firm for the market of tablets. It is true that Android tablets have been seeing for years, although not as what is expected to be uncovered in the event that will take place from next week. We are talking about the rumored Nexus Tab, a device that would have been developed by the Taiwanese Asus and that would become the first native terminal of this nature in the Android ecosystem.
In the event that this equipment was revealed, the possibility that it was backed by Android 4.1 would take on signs of plausibility after knowing the leak on Google Play. Even if it did not go on the market with Jelly Bean, it could serve as a basis for advancement, coinciding with the leaked and subsequently modified description of the Samsung Galaxy Nexus to which we have alluded.
The entry of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean on the scene will occur in what is estimated to be the most competitive moment in terms of smartphone platforms. At the beginning of the month Apple showed its nails with iOS 6, the system that will provide new functions to "" some "" the firm's mobiles and tablets.
Microsoft is not far behind, and this week has shown its proposal for Windows Phone, which will materialize in versions Windows Phone 8 and Windows Phone 7.8. Without knowing when Google would launch its update dubbed Jelly Bean, everything seems to indicate that, in this field, the months of October and November will be very intense when it comes to checking how each manufacturer tries to seize a part of the market pie.
