New Android Version V4.1 Jelly Bean by Google and Asus

On 27 June 2012, Google along with Asus announced the new Android version, V4.1 (Jelly Bean) for its new tablet Nexus 7. It is an incremental update with the main focus of improving the user interface, both in functionality and performance, the latter involving "Project Butter" which uses touch anticipation, triple buffering, extended vsync timing and a fixed frame rate of 60fps to create a fluid and "buttery" smooth UI.






Features:

Vsync timing across all drawing and animation done by the Android framework, including application rendering, touch events, screen composition and display refresh
Triple buffering in the graphics pipeline
Enhanced accessibility
Bi-directional text and other language support
User-installable keyboard maps
Expandable notifications
Ability to turn off notifications on an app specific basis
Automatically re-sizable app widgets
Bluetooth data transfer for Android Beam
Offline voice dictation
Improved voice search
Improved camera app
High resolution contact photos
Google Now - It is a mob personalized search app by Google with built in Android 4.1 OS.



Multichannel audio
USB Audio (for external sound DACs)
Audio chaining (also known as gapless playback)

So this is it, the new Android OS by Google for its new tab, but this tab is now only for US, UK Australia and Canada. Hope we get this tab EVEN at our countries.
