Most of Android are still running on Old Android versions

Google revealed earlier this week that 71.6% of Android users were still using the pre-Lollipop version of the OS. The divisions are as follows: 36.6% of devices are still running Android 4.4 KitKat while a 26.9% of users are still running various versions of Jelly Bean. While the latter was released in 2012 and hasn’t seen an update since October 2013, the former first arrived two years ago.Google Android OS

As for iOS users, a massive 70% of them are running iOS 9 which came out only in September this year. Additionally, iOS 8 is being used to run about 92% Apple devices; an OS released not more than 16 months ago.

Though Android 6.0 Marshmallow has enough things to like about it, many users will have to wait another couple of months before they can run it on their devices. The contrast between iOS and Android updates offers an interesting picture. Perhaps the inertia and stagnation that sets in once the users become accustomed to running a particular OS make them shy away from updates. Other than the availability of the OS what else do you think could keep users away from upgrading their Android devices?

Now in my real time, I am also using Android Kitkat 4.4.4 in my Redmi 2 Prime because it is the most stable version of Android.I also use 6.0.1 in my Micromax Android One (Sprout).I found it quite disappointing because it lots of bugs like sometimes it blurs the whole display while you are launching app drawer (it sucks sometimes) and we all use our smartphone while its full battery is drained and think if your battery can't last longer!.The big reason to worry and that is what is found in Android M (6.0.1).That's why I am using a custom ROM in my sprout with a custom kernel that is helping a lot for making my battery last longer and if you have to

Xiaomi's Mi5 [LEAKED][SPECS]Should launch on 21 JANUARY

Xiaomi may not have revealed launch date of the Mi 5 flagship smartphone. But the company has been buzzing social media with claims that the handset will be "worth the wait" and is "very, very good". A new leak tips that the company may launch the Mi 5 smartphone next year on January 21.

A Weibo tipster claims that Xiaomi will launch two versions of the Mi 5 - one priced at CNY 1,999 (approximately Rs. 20,800) and another at CNY 2,499 (approximately Rs. 26,000). It also claims some of the features of the Mi 5 smartphone including a pressure-sensitive touchscreen, which is in-line with an earlier report that claimed Mi 5 will debut Apple's 3D Touch-like pressure sensitive technology. The Weibo tipster also claims that Mi 5 will be the company's first smartphone running Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

The Weibo tipster has also posted an image that purportedly shows the Mi 5 smartphone. If this picture is accurate, then the Mi 5 will be the first handset in Xiaomi's lineup to sport a physical button. In-line with several previous leaks, the physical home button on the display is likely to serve as a fingerprint scanner.

In a separate leak, Chinese analyst Pan Jiutang has come out to claim that the Mi 5 will not pack Qualcomm's Snapdragon Sense ID 3D fingerprint technology. According to Chinese analyst, the Sense ID is still in early days and is not as reliable as the current technology.

To recall, Qualcomm's Sense ID was launched at MWC and was claimed to be more secure than current implementations thanks to the ability to generate highly detailed 3D fingerprint maps with recognised patterns of sweat glands and ridges.

Based on leaks, the Xiaomi Mi 5 is said to pack an octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 810 v2.1 SoC. However, a separate report had recently claimed that due to a delay in Qualcomm's Snapdragon 820 chipsets, Xiaomi may opt for MediaTek deca-core Helio X20 processor. Other purported innards of the Mi 5 include 4GB of RAM; Adreno 530 GPU; a 5.3-inch QHD (1440x2560) pixels resolution display with pixel density of 554ppi; 16GB or 64GB inbuilt storage variants with no option for expandable storage; a 16-megapixel rear camera with dual-LED flash, and a 3030mAh battery.

Lenovo and Razer Soon gonna make a Gaming Rig in 2016

Lenovo and Razer revealed in an announcement made on Friday that the two companies will be teaming up to work on a range of gaming PCs in 2016. The specs of the devices are yet to be revealed. Razer has commented that,

[All] Forthcoming Lenovo Razer Edition Products Will Be Co-Branded And Reflect The Edgy Lenovo Y Series Look And Feel With Iconic Razer Elements Like Customizable Chroma Lighting Effects.

Additionally, Razer has also mentioned that it’s working on more than just PCs and will “double down efforts to fast-track the development of new technologies, including gaming experience enhancements.” 

There will be an official unveiling in January where further updates on the plans of Razer and Lenovo will be revealed. In the meantime, you can sign up on Razer’s website for their newsletter and stay on top of the news.

But as I have found that upcoming Rig, which would be made by Levono and Razer would feature a new generation of Nvidia graphics card or something like that.It would not be a budget Pc so you should think once before making your mind buy this Pc in future because we all know how expensive Razers Pcs are and if we add the coolness of Lenovo then I don't think that thing would be in budget.
