Google Rolls Out Official Android 4.0 ICS Update

Posted by timothy on from the it's-melting-everywhere dept.

dell623 writes "Google is rolling out an OTA upgrade to Ice Cream Sandwich for the Nexus S. GSM versions can already be updated manually. An early review is largely positive and comments on the significant visual and performance improvements. The Nexus S upgrade allows for a direct comparison against Gingerbread on the same hardware, and the likely improvement in current phones that will receive the upgrade."

    Android has Exchange support. Honeycomb added full device encryption, and ICS carries it over. It's right in the changelist.

    The free market has a decidedly pro-Android bias. Android is now on more than half of smartphones - not because it's the only option but because people chose it, voting with their own money.

    Maybe that's because it's better.
