Rumor: Android 3.0 ( Gingerbread ) release date and details

July 3rd, 2010 by Alex in Android cellphones News

Official Google sources teamed up with Eldar Murtazin, the Russian phone guru, have brought us a few details and a possible release date of the future Google developed OS, the Android 3.0, also known as Gingerbread. As the developers predict, this will be a high end operating system, created solely for smartphones with requirements that will blow your mind off. The main idea of this concept is to keep Android 2.x versions to low and medium cost cellphones and let the 3.x to the tough guys. What does tough guys mean in the Android market?

Well, it seems Google’s idea of high end smartphones for the near future is a processor somewhere near 2.1-2.2 GHz and 1 GB of ram. That’s why Android 3.0 will be designed for cellphones that have a 1.5 GHz processor and 512 MB of RAM memory, running on a display with the minimum size of 3.5 inch. Gingerbread will also have a premium feature for cellphone with a 4.0 inch display: a 1280×760 resolution will be supported. Google promotes them as the recommended requirements for Android 3.0. Well, that tops my laptop.

Another main improvements of the Android 3.0 will be the UI ( user interface ). Google has learned from previous mistakes and has listen advices from customers worldwide. That’s why Gingerbread will have a totally new, redesigned face.

As for the Android 3.0 release date, rumors say that it will hit the market around 15th or 16th of October. That is to be ready for all the smartphones that will be launched in the Holidays season.
