Advantages & Disadvantages Android OS

I have discussed about the Advantages & Disadvantages Android OS 

HISTORY OF ANDROID OS

Android is a Linux-based operating system for mobile phones such as smartphones and tablet computers. Android provides an open platform for developers to create their own applications for use by a variety of mobile devices. 

Initially, Google Inc.. bought Android Inc.., newcomers who make software for mobile phones. Then to develop Android, formed the Open Handset Alliance, a consortium of 34 companies for hardware, software, and telecommunications, including Google, HTC, Intel, Motorola, Qualcomm, T-Mobile, and Nvidia. 

At the inaugural release of Android, 5 November 2007, with the Open Handset Alliance Android states support the development of open standards on mobile devices. 

On the other hand, Google released the Android code under the Apache license, a license software and open standard mobile device. 

In this world there are two types of distributors operating system Android. The first fully supported by Google or Google Mail Services(GMS) and the second is completely free distribution without direct support Google's otherwise known as the Open Handset Distribution (OHD).

ADVANTAGES ANDROID OS

• Open Source: Because the system is open, it allows you to easily create their own applications.
• Sync your Google Account: sync feature with your Google account, it is required to use the Android mobile OS, because everything is accessible by the account, eg Play Store
• Infinite Communications Media: Facebook, Twitter, Google Plus, MySpace, Digg, and so you can access via the Android OS, because many client applications are popping up allows you to communicate
•  Wi-Fi & GPS: Certainly Mobile OS Android has fitus Wifi and GPS, both mobile phone with low price to luxury
• Interfece Interest: interfece Speaking of the Android OS will not have run out, we can set the homescreen itself, or using applications would make it look bored staring at your phone every day.
• Multitasking: Android OS is also an operating system that brings multitasking (running applications simultaneously), but here too there are shortcomings.
• Touch Screen: Surely the Android OS using the touch screen feature, menginggat interesting interfece
• OS Version: Here you will not find any problems installing the application, because nearly all applications or games can be installed on different versions of the Android OS,
•  Motion Sensor: This makes playing games on the Android OS more attractive, we shake the phone to the left and right to turn the car just like a real car
•  Play Store: Want to install an application or game, directly download it on the play store, despite the pay, many are also interesting but it's free
• Upgradeable OS: Android OS can we upgrade to a newer version via OTA directly from the mobile phone (depends on provider Vendors)
• CFW (Custom Firmware): Because it is Open Source, do not be surprised if you find the Custom Firmware, which the original firmware that has been edited to improve performance. CFW is popular today is made Cynogen

DISADVANTAGES ANDROID OS

• Battery Boros: Touch Screen, Multitasking, and Internet connection makes the Android OS Battery destroyed section, even if you perform a variety of ways to save battery life, still useless.
•  Multitasking: Multitasking is useful, but there's also a downside, because believe it or not, the Android OS has so many applications that work even if you do not know (Running Background), this should have an impact on the RAM and Battery. Although there is an application to stop the program, still the program will run again
• File Size: Make sure you have the MMC with a large capacity, due to the file size Android application or game is quite large, especially HD games can reach sizes of gigabytes (GB)
•  Processor Type: Android OS has a different processor types such Adreno, Nvidia, Tegra, and so on. This is quite confusing because there are times when the game can only be played on processors supported even if you have already installed the game
•   Internet Access: Surely it also makes you upset, why??? Because once you activate the internet connection, then all applications using the Internet want to connect without you knowing, for example, look for the latest updates at Play Store application, and it will make your mobile RAM heavy
•  Privacy Notice: Do you believe your account security Google, Yahoo, Facebook, and so it would be safe to use the Android OS? Try to think of so many applications that you use to access data on accounts related (Permissions), an example application Friendcaster will access your Facebook account after you login through the application. Surely you do not think twice! And I was also being discussed will be the level of account security humility that is in the Android OS (I just hope they can fix it)
