Google has officially unveiled the Android 2.0 smartphone OS. Simply known as the “Éclair”, it’s the operating system’s first major update, adding a long list of upgrades and improvements highlighted by a better camera interface, an improved virtual keyboard, and a better Web browser.
Éclair is now capable of handling high-end cameras, with more cam settings and available tweaking options (such as flash settings, scene modes, white balance and color filters). The touchscreen keyboard now recognizes multi-touch inputs for faster typing, while the browser is updated to handle HTML5-coded pages.
The new OS also features enhanced support for Bluetooth devices, as well as an improved messaging system that allows for inbox searches and automatic deletes for old messages.
The full list of the Android 2.0 platform is available here.
