It has been more than two months since Google released the Android P system at the Global Developers Conference. During this time, Google released three test versions for developers to develop and test, and also made some system content. Update.
Although it has been tested for more than two months, but the official code of the Android P system, Google has not been released. Previously, according to the code of previous generations of Android system, users may guess that the code name may be food, like Android. The code used in 7.0 is Nougat (Nougat), and the code used in Android 8.0 is Oreo (Oreo). Recently, a foreign netizen broke the news that he was in the process of seeking help from mobile phone customer service. The code for Android P is Pistachio (pistachio).
According to Google's introduction at the Android P conference, Android P has made great progress in terms of intelligence and machine learning compared to previous generations.
The first is the adaptive function. The new adaptive function of Android P is mainly applied to the three aspects of screen brightness, battery power management and memory management. The adaptive function is very simple to implement, but the development difficulty is very high. The algorithm is more Based on Google's big data and user usage data, it is used as a standard for automatically changing CPU load and memory allocation. The effect of this feature is remarkable, and the new adaptive function not only makes the phone last longer. Also make your Android phone more and more smooth, the more comfortable you use.
Another feature of Android P is simplicity. For a more lightweight system experience, Android P introduces gesture operation interaction logic. The previous Home button has now become a 'small white bar', click 'small white bar' to return to the home page, if it is slipping, it is to cut out the task interface, slide left and right You can switch the running application, you can call the App Desk (application drawer) twice in a row, and the return button is not canceled. It only appears in the multitasking interface/application. In addition, the volume The adjusted interface has also changed, not only on the side, but also added a mute and ringtone switch icon.
In addition to these two features, Android P also joined the ARCore framework, reducing the difficulty of AR application development. There is also Dashboard function, to help users better arrange their lives by showing the duration of each app, thus avoiding long-term use of mobile phones. Causes harm.
If the news from the customer service is true, then Pistachio (Pistachio) as the code name of Android P does have its merits. Pistachio, also known as 'no name', hides a nutritious fruit under its plain appearance. It's also the same as Android's simple and clear UI and powerful features. And Google's preference for desserts and nuts will not last in Android. This will be an interesting question.
