The Android 5.1 Lollipop is steadily (and slowly) making its way to devices, and we now know what treats, fixes and updates it contains inside. The rollout of 5.1 also means it's a good time to start talking about what we want and expect from the Android 5.2 Lollipop update.
While there are few hard facts about it so far, there are already a few rumors swirling around, as well as our own expectations about what can be done to improve on Android. As more information about the Android 5.2 Lollipop update emerges, this will be the place to findout about it - so stay tuned.
Information about Android 5.2 Lollipop is scarce so far, but back in February a Geekbench benchmark emerged of a Nexus 5 seemingly running Android 5.2 Lollipop. While the benchmark gives no details on what to expect from Android 5.2, it suggests that there are a few pockets of the world where some early build of it already exists.
As with all Android updates, 5.1 fixed many problems, but also introduced a few of its own. The Nexus 5, for example, has seen reports of a memory leak, which has slowed some users' devices down. We'd hope that this will be fixed in a 5.1.1 Lollipop update, but it could feature in Android 5.2 instead. Battery life is also something that regularly improves with Android updates, so we're hoping that Android 5.2 Lollipop will continue improving the OS in this area too.
Of course, we always hope that major updates like this will bring with them one or two surprise features that take the Android OS forward, rather than just iron out its flaws. We'll keep you posted as more details emerge.
