Hi guys, it's me Ryan's here and i today to posting about my 3rd Google Products, which vendors that really liked it, yes it's LG Nexus 5X,
Just Check it
Erm, Usually i bought a lot of gadget from Imported unit(PS: some phone u really can't get it from Malaysia like Samsung Galaxy Note 7 Snapdragon and newly launched phone by LG V20), which was from friends and partners as well, and this is the 1st time i got it from the site, purchased from CyberSales Malaysia (actual RRP RM1199, 1yr Warranty under BrightStar (MY), i got it crazy discount for RM 999 with some rebates, till RM 930)

Here we go, and oh yeah thanks to SkyNet Courier Services as well 

PS:i missed the extra items icon_rolleyes.gif

Android L, Android Lollipop review part 1

I think most of you guys sure had heard before of the yearly of the Google I/O right, Yes, it's unveiled on June 25, 2014 during Google I/O, it became available as official over-the-air (OTA) updates on November 12, 2014 for select devices that run distributions of Android serviced by Google, including Nexus and Google Play edition devices. Its source code was made available on November 3, 2014.

And the 1st of the Google Nexus device that 1st priority to get, yes is Nexus 6 , Nexus 9 tablet and Player the mini home machine 

and so on there is some explaination from developer android site,

Material design

New 3D views let you set a z-level to raise elements off of the view hierarchy and cast realtime shadows, even as they move.
Built-in activity transitions take the user seamlessly from one state to another with beautiful, animated motion. The material theme adds transitions for your activities, including the ability to use shared visual elements across activities.

You can also define vector drawables in XML and animate them in a variety of ways. Vector drawables scale without losing definition, so they are perfect for single-color in-app icons.
Ripple animations are available for buttons, checkboxes, and other touch controls in your app.
A new system-managed processing thread called Render Thread keeps animations smooth even when there are delays in the main UI thread. [refer to the pictures]

1st. picture, mostly looks more nicer than others
2nd. contact icons are changed to round [mostly i loved it so much]
3rd. Contact are pretty done as well
4th. here is the dialer design

Performance focus


Android 5.0 provides a faster, smoother and more powerful computing experience.
Android now runs exclusively on the new ART runtime, built from the ground up to support a mix of ahead-of-time (AOT), just-in-time (JIT), and interpreted code. It’s supported on ARM, x86, and MIPS architectures and is fully 64-bit compatible.
ART improves app performance and responsiveness. Efficient garbage collection reduces the number and duration of pauses for GC events, which fit comfortably within the v-sync window so your app doesn’t skip frames. ART also dynamically moves memory to optimize performance for foreground uses.
Android 5.0 introduces platform support for 64-bit architectures—used by the Nexus 9's NVIDIA Tegra K1. Optimizations provide larger address space and improved performance for certain compute workloads. Apps written in the Java language run as 64-bit apps automatically—no modifications are needed. If your app uses native code, we’ve extended the NDK to support new ABIs for ARM v8, and x86-64, and MIPS-64.
Continuing the focus on smoother performance, Android 5.0 offers improved A/V sync. The audio and graphics pipelines have been instrumented for more accurate timestamps, enabling video apps and games to display smooth synchronized content.

oh yeah, there was fully supporting miracasting aka screen casting, which was highlighted on the I/O... and u can use any gadgets [except: wearables] 

Media

Bolder graphics and improved audio, video, and camera capabilities
Lower latency audio input ensuring that music and communication applications that have strict delay requirements provide an amazing realtime experience
Multi-channel audio stream mixing means professional audio applications can now mix up to eight channels including 5.1 and 7.1 channels
USB Audio support means you can plug USB microphones, speakers, and a myriad of other USB audio devices like amplifiers and mixers into your Android device
OpenGL ES 3.1 and Android extension pack brings Android to the forefront of mobile graphics putting it on par with desktop and console class performance
A range of new professional photography features for Android Lollipop that let you
Capture full resolution frames around 30 fps
Support raw formats like YUV and Bayer RAWControl capture settings for the sensor, lens, and flash per individual frame
Capture metadata like noise models and optical information
State of the art video technology with support for HEVC to allow for UHD 4K video playback, tunneled video for high quality video playback on Android TV and improved HLS support for streaming and add-on some benchmarks for my Nexus 4 on Lollipop's  
1st. is the Quadrant Standard Edition
2nd. Antutu 


OK Google
Easy access to information and performing tasks
Even if your screen is off, you can say "OK Google" on devices with digital signal processing support such as Nexus 6 and Nexus 9 [PS: Nexus 4 and Nexus 5 aren't have this function.. still pending from XDA members]
Talk to Google on the go to get quick answers, send a text, get directions and more [sounds likes Siri]

Android TV
Support for living room devices
User interface adapted for the living room
Less browsing, more watching with personalized recommendations for content like movies and TV shows

Android run time , ART [simple explaination] No craps.. :D



Introduction ?hmm.gif

-Okay, Actually it's a new runtime for android OS n Experimental released for 4.4 Kit-kat version.
-Features with the ahead-of-time compilation which translates all of the app’s bytecode to machine language at the time of the first installation.

-Less CPU loads , Less battery leakage gimmickshappy.gif
-and it also introduced it as an experimental feature for developers and to gain early feedback, but we could be close to seeing it enabled as the default runtime in an upcoming version of Android. An Android code commit at Google’s git foretells a change that would make ART the preferred option while still maintaining Dalvik as a secondary option for those finding it hard to say goodbye.


Google’s intention to replace Dalvik, though the earlier years of Android forced their hand in putting up with what is generally seen as a less efficient process. Devices back in the early days had very limited RAM and storage, and less capable CPUs, and the Dalvik runtime’s “only compile what you need” architecture made it perfect for those devices as it kept the memory footprint to a minimum.

But some of the entry-level devices of today will not go much lower than 512MB of RAM and 4GB of storage [Same explaination as jellybean 4.1.2-4.3], and they use very capable processors compared to the same class of devices just a few years ago. With Google optimizing Android 4.4 KitKat to make it perform great on these entry-level devices, they can finally use this more traditional compilation engine without worry that someone’s phone isn’t up to par.

Benefit?drool.gif
allows for swifter app performance.
It doesn't compile the app during startup allowing for faster processing.
improve battery life. Less compilation instructions=less CPU time.
The less time the device uses CPU, the more energy efficient it becomes.

Important!icon_idea.gif
According from Android developers

Dalvik must remain the default runtime or you risk breaking your Android implementations and third-party applications.

Two runtimes are now available, the existing Dalvik runtime (libdvm.so) and the ART (libart.so). A device can be built using either or both. (You can dual boot from Developer options if both are installed.)

The dalvikvm command line tool can run with either of them now. See runtime_common.mk. That is included from build/target/product/runtime_libdvm.mk or build/target/product/runtime_libdvm.mk or both.
A new PRODUCT_RUNTIMES variable controls which runtimes are included in a build. Include it within either build/target/product/core_minimal.mk or build/target/product/core_base.mk.
Add this to the device makefile to have both runtimes built and installed, with Dalvik as the default:


Codes
 

PRODUCT_RUNTIMES := runtime_libdvm_default
PRODUCT_RUNTIMES += runtime_libart

Here is the xda explainations :)
