What Every Person Should Understand About Android One, Android Go and Android by NaijaTechGuy(m): 12:59am On Jun 30, 2018 |
The Android Operating system has grown at such a rate that 7 out of 10 persons use an Android phone. It seems Google’s masterplan is actually working. Now I know if you aren’t the Tech kind of person there’s still a chance you’ve heard Android is named alphabetically after desserts. Android Versions Android 1.6. Donut. Android 2.1. Eclair. Android 2.2. Froyo. Android 2.3. Gingerbread. Android 3.0. Honeycomb. Android 4.0. Ice Cream Sandwich. Android 4.1. Jelly Bean. Android 4.4. KitKat. Android 5.0 Lollipop Android 6.0 Marshmallow Android 7.0 Nougat Android 8.0 Oreo Android 9.0 – That hasn’t been named yet but I’m guessing It’s Peppermint Now you’ve looked at the list there’s no Android Go and there’s no Android One, it looks confusing but you shouldn’t get confused. Android One and Android Go are variants not versions of the Android OS and in this post I’ll be explaining these variants and when you should go for each one. Android Go I’m starting with this because it’s the most recent variant of Android. Android Go is basically a stripped down version of the mainstream Android OS; you can call it a lightweight version of the Android OS. It comes with light weight apps and has a data saving feature that effectively reduces data usage all around the phone to make sure the device runs smoothly. Android Go is targeted at devices with 1GB RAM or lesser. The initial devices that ran on 1 GB RAM and lower on the normal Android OS struggled to keep up and sometimes kept freezing constantly so Google came up with a solution to deal with it by developing Android Go. Phones running on Android Go get constant updates from Google and If you have a low budget but wish to keep up with the latest updates in the Android world then Go is definitely your choice. Android One One of the annoying things smartphone manufacturers usually do in most phones is to pre install bloatware; apps that aren’t needed. These apps take up the space in the device without adding any value to it. Android One takes all of that away by giving you a clean stock android experience. Android One Phones are also supported by Google and get updates periodically for a period of two years and I believe most people don’t use phones that long, I don’t use phones for more than 6 months personally. If you’re looking for a phone that has no bloatware but has at least 2 GB RAM, then an Android One Smartphone is your best bet. Android OS Depending on the manufacturer, the regular android OS will come with 3rd party pre-installed apps, a customized UI – XUI for Infinix, MIUI for Xiaomi, HiOS for Tecno and lots of other amazing UI’s. This offers everything Android has to offer with no limitations. If you love customizations and don’t really like a clean stock Android experience, there are millions of mobile phones running on this to choose from. Most Flagship devices run on this, so if you are looking to get a tweaked UI with all of what Android has to Offer then go with the regular android OS 1 Like 1 Share |

The Tecno spark 2 comes with Android Go and it performs like a 2GB Ram device. Google did well with the Android Go |

i love the idea of the Android go version, it has given opportunity for 1gb devices like the spark 2 to run smoothly. really nice innovation from google. |
Re: What Every Person Should Understand About Android One, Android Go and Android by saxby(f): 1:31am On Jul 01, 2018 |
i think the spark 2 goes for about 36200 Abiodunspectre: |

Pls house, between itel p32 and Nokia 2, which one can one go for. |
Re: What Every Person Should Understand About Android One, Android Go and Android by NaijaTechGuy(m): 7:39am On Jul 02, 2018 |
zimunachimdi: Depending on your budget.. I'd pick the Nokia 2. However the p32 is more affordable. There's not much difference in the battery capacity, Nokia 2 comes with 4100mAh while the P32 comes with 4000mAh |
Re: What Every Person Should Understand About Android One, Android Go and Android by saxby(f): 10:58am On Jul 02, 2018 |
wow, thats nice to know, i used to think the spark 2 was the only device running on the android go version for now NaijaTechGuy: |
Re: What Every Person Should Understand About Android One, Android Go and Android by NaijaTechGuy(m): 4:00pm On Jul 02, 2018 |
saxby: Nah.. There are a couple of other devices too |
Re: What Every Person Should Understand About Android One, Android Go and Android by zimunachimdi: 11:20pm On Jul 02, 2018 |
NaijaTechGuy:Ok,why will you choose Nokia 2? What features will make you choose it sir? I have seen and held itel p32. It looks good. My budget can still cover Nokia 2 though with little hustle. I need a strong conviction to go for it. Thanks. |
Re: What Every Person Should Understand About Android One, Android Go and Android by NaijaTechGuy(m): 12:30pm On Jul 03, 2018 |
zimunachimdi: I've gone through the Nokia 2 and it looks solid and my view of the Itel p32 is based on the specifications I've seen online. So it's not a conclusive one. I have a review unit here from iTel, once I get a hands on feel of the phone, I'd certainly let you know.. However both are good phones but if you need a good rear camera, my choice would be the P32 any time. |

zimunachimdi: Almost concluded my review of the P32. Battery life is superb though it takes a little time to go from 0-100%. The camera is great as well and performed better than I expected . You can get the P32. It's awesome, I believe you won't regret it |

Thank you for this enlightening piece. Now I know the differences. Android Go on Tecno Spark 2 is to optimize the device. |
