We figured Google was going to respond to those claims and […]

Cool
As they say, it's the best phone for someone who wants a smart phone, and I agree 100% Honestly I wanted the iPhone because I used to care about vanity and feeling cool, but seeing how it JUST started doing the things androids been doing for several years, I realize the primary purpose of an iPhone, is to show people you have an iPhone.

Google also announced that the […]

A focus on Android Wear meant Google was eager to get new wearable from partners like LG and Samsung onto the wrists of attendees. All making the trip to Google I/O will leave with either an LG G Watch or Samsung Gear Live smartwatch in addition to a Moto 360 when it ships later this summer.

I'm just excited to get my hands on the "L" release preview tomorrow. The new visual overhaul and functionality is something I'm going to want to get my hands on before making a call.
First impressions from the keynote were that I really don't like the new navigation buttons <| O |=|

I use expanded desktop and pie anyway so nav bar doesn't affect me personally.
It's just crazy the amount of ideas they've taken from roms and Xposed modules lol. I suppose that's what androids all about.
