Jelly Bean brings 3 different UIs for Android devices

Yes this is GREAT. I love Android 4.1.1 Jelly Bean on my Samsung Galaxy Nexus. It's so smooth, super FAST & the Google Now is just plain genius. I can't WAIT until my Asus Transformer Prime gets some Android Jelly Bean action.

I still can't wait for the Samsung Galaxy Note 2 which should run Android Jelly Bean when it comes out as per the rumors.

WOW Android is where it's at. Innovation indeed.

Yeah it's getting better, custom roms are also great and Jelly Bean is a big improvement

It is not really fragmentation..Android has a built in PPI calculator and it correlates it to the screen size, to give the perfect text legibility and screen formating for software, movies and games....It is just a versatile OS unlike IOs**t.....(yay my first apple joke!)

And that's how you bitch slap a troll

Using that same argument the iPod iPhone iPad iPad mini iPhone 4" iPad with retina are and will all cause fragmentation

Don't be jealous that your iPhone is getting stretched out and is going to look like s**t. Cheers to innovation....... not.

whut? you cannot read, dumbdumb?

Android apps will scale out, so no matter which UI you are using, it will still be the same.

You could make just one app and that will work with all UIs (phone, hybrid, tablet).. Unlike the fragmentation of iPhone and iPad apps.. get it? no? i'm not surprised, your brain is already fragmented by the different functionality iOS 6 will bring to different iOS devices..

I take it you didnt even bother reading the article....

you call fragmentation when the full ios 6 experience will only be available to the iphone 4s and ipad 3, the iphone 4, 3gs and ipod 4th gen will be getting cut down versions without the new maps and SIRI (not sure about the ipod)

Not at all this occurred with 3.x-4.0 and is kinda different

I think those will just use the phone UI.

Tablet 7" interfaces might do

You can always just change the dpi :)

Honestly I like the 10inch traditional tablet ui more ,
Wonder if you can change it in the nexus 7 ?

Lol, yes, I think that's what Michael meant.

Around here it does, because we would never use the word f*** anyway, so the banned f-word for us is f************. (that is a lot of f***ing asterisks...)

we're all aware of this. the Padfone does this and Motorola does this with Webtop, the different TABLET UIs based on display size is what's different.

and that's where the hybrid mode comes in. I've seen videos of the Nexus 7 UI, and CM9 Paranoid Android can easily replicate it and you can even customize it to your liking. basically what I'm saying is, it's not surprising that Google would implement this in Jelly Bean since it's easy enough to do in ICS.
