This Android M features coming to Samsung devices – TechTastic

Samsung has almost all of its high-end handsets now updated to Android 5.x lollipop, but in the meantime Google already announced a new version of the mobile operating system: Android M. This new version was announced a few months ago during Google I / O and must be given an official name yet, but the development of the Developer Preview is yet to be progressing well.

The Korean company says work hard to get the Android M shortly after launch in as quickly as possible roles for its main products: the Galaxy S5, Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6, Galaxy S6 Edge +, Galaxy Note 4 Edge Galaxy Note, Galaxy Note5, Alpha Galaxy S2 and the Galaxy Tab. Presumably, the update also to many other devices, but the aforementioned models will at least with certainty be updated.

But what we can we expect from Android M, for example, the new Galaxy S6 Edge + Note5 or Galaxy? Samsung has published an infographic with the six key features of Android M: application permissions, web experience, mobile payments, support for fingerprint scanners and energy

Application permissions

Memory

Fingerprint Scanner

You can not just use the fingerprint scanner to unlock your phone, but then it is also possible to log in, for example on the Google Play Store. Unlike Android Lollipop you no longer need your password to carry everything in and you can use the scanner to authenticate Play Store transactions.

Backup

Are you scared app losing data when changing product? Android M automatically through Google Drive to back up all of your user data and settings, so you can easily switch if your smartphone can recover.

Battery life

Android M according Google also more efficient and that should result in longer battery life than Lollipop. The operating system is able to recognize when a device has not been used, then it activates a doze mode to reduce background processes to a minimum in order to increase battery life.
