Motorola Droid – Android 2.2 review

Just a few hours ago I received Android 2.2 on my Motorola Droid . Even though I have had a limited time to use the lasted version of the Android OS I have noticed an increase in performance , stability and better integration between App's and UI. Overall this is the step android needs to take in order to become the ” Iphone Killer” everyone wants it to be.

The Good

1. Faster Machine Speed. Android 2.2 Froyo is using JIT which makes application speed up 2-5 times.
2. New API, including backup API and device information API. Your Incredible and HTC EVO 4G can play as a Wi-Fi hot spot and provide internet access to other devices, such as iPad.
3. Faster Browser. Browser in 2.2 begins to have V8 JS support, and of course, the flash content support.
4. Better Apps and Battery Life Management. System will automatically update all apps if there is new version and that will help improve phone's battery life.
5. Enterprise Features. Provide better enterprise function support, such as Microsoft Exchange.
6. Updated Car mode interface
7. Updated Marketplace features

The Bad :

1. No Tethering on Original Droid
2. No Flash Support YET on Motorola Droid ( Verizon has stated that there will be another Android 2.2 update in coming weeks to enable flash
