Your Android Tablet has just gone through a major revolution of sorts thanks to the new Ice Cream Sandwich operating system, which has many sensational upgrades. Android 4.0 or Ice Cream Sandwich is the new update from Google to Android mobile operating system and tablets. It has many new features, which make it more of a complete revamp than upgrade. It’s also the reason why you will have to get a hang of how this operating system works and its different features that you can make the most out of.
Some of the brilliant features that make Ice Cream Sandwich so special include capacitive buttons that you will find at the bottom of the screen. However physical buttons for home, search, back and menu are missing. But then you have the option of switching things up so that the screen can span over the entire device. Moreover, apps like calendar is now zoomable, and voicemail can be found in call log. Being able to slow down or speed up voice messages is another cool feature along with ability to take screenshots by pressing power and volume buttons.
