Poll results: Is Android L the most important Android update ever?

One of the biggest software-related news in recent months was the announcement of Android L, Google’s brand new Android iteration that will be released sometime this fall. Google showcased a lot of the features that Android L comes with, and it even made a developer preview available for its Nexus devices (only owners of the Nexus 5 and Nexus 7 2013 can get it at the moment).

While some things about Android L may change before it reaches regular users, it’s already more than obvious that this is a massive update. But is it the most important Android update ever? Well, we ran a poll last week, asking you exactly this question.

From the total of 4,843 votes, 2,307 voters (47.64%) are already convinced that Android L represents the most important update since Google’s platform was first announced back in 2008. 1,878 voters (38.78%) aren’t so sure about this, still waiting to test Android L before deciding. Finally, only 658 voters (13.59%) said that the L release isn’t the most important Android update yet (with ICS, Gingerbread, or Jelly Bean being more important to some of our readers).

In case you didn’t bother counting, Android L is the tenth major Android update. Before it, we had Cupcake, Donut, Eclair, Froyo, Gingerbread, Honeycomb, Ice Cream Sandwich, Jelly Bean, and KitKat.

Why the Nokia X is the best phone you'll never buy In Depth What's its X-factor? The Nokia X hasn't made much impression in the US and UK, but it's a bestseller elsewhere in the world While 2014 will likely be remembered for its Samsung, HTC, LG, Sony and Apple flagships, it's a trio of budget Nokia handsets that have been among the most unexpected and surprising releases so far. We're talking of course about the dramatically named Nokia X and its siblings the Nokia X+ and Nokia XL . They're phones which had tongues wagging ever since they were first rumoured for the simple reason that they were Nokia devices running Android . When they were finally revealed there was perhaps a sense of disappointment at just how low end they were, but that hasn't stopped the Nokia X from selling.
