2015-11-20
when it comes to Android om take their own approach but for Sony its interface hasn't seemed as polished as its rival OMS however the company is using its concept for marshmallow program as an opportunity to learn from customer feedback and after a few days with the update we're asking is Sony's interface about to get the major overhaul that it desperately needs hey what's going on everybody its NER of here friend road authority bringing you a quick look at Sony's concept marshmallow running on the Sony Xperia z3 Sony's hardware is definitely premium but its software has been somewhat lackluster of late with elements such as small apps still present despite a lack of positive user feedback Sony's interface has also traditionally been quite slow but one thing you'll know is immediately about the marshmallow update is just how fast and fluid it actually is prior to marshmallow Sony adopted a similar approach to some of its rivals by customizing large parts of the Android experience but this resulted in sluggish performance with this marshmallow update however Sony has adopted the less is more approach and like Motorola he is running an almost stock version of marshmallow with the addition of just a few small Sony changes in tweaks the first thing you'll notice is the Sony launcher which looks quite similar to previous versions but hasn't improved to make it much faster alongside the launcher Sony has also tweaked the Settings app to include more options than are present on stock Android as you might have expected based on past handsets Sony has also replaced a stock gallery and music players with its own album and music applications Sony's other additions to the OS included Xperia Care application and its own camera app the experior care app provides quick access to support topics and warranty information and helps you customize your smart phone while in the camera app a key change is the speed of the app with photos now capturing and loading much faster than they do on lollipop there's also less camera apps pre-installed and the options are quite minimal packaged inside a sneak and relatively easy to use camera experience so this is a quick hands-on but what do you take away from Sony's concept for marshmallow project it's really simple sony is finally fixing its software and if the final product is as quick as this beta sony may yet find a smartphone division regain profitability the concept for marshmallow project is a vision of a new Sony and this is how all Sony smartphone should be fast fluid and no silly preloaded apps just a clean experience with a few small additions to the stock OS so what do you think about Sony's concept for marshmallow and do you want to see it running on your Sony Android handset let us know your views in the comments below guys and don't forget to give us a if you like this video check out the related videos that are appearing on the right don't forget to subscribe and hey head over to android authority comm because we are your source for all things Android until next time
