    That's samsung's 3rd watch. I'm wondering if there will be any way to get android wear onto the previous watches. I might buy one on clearance in case that does happen somehow.

    Currently running the preview build for nexus 5. AMA.

    So far everything seems to be running smoothly. On battery saver mode the system seems to slow down quite a bit with lady animation. That is expected though with different CPU schedulers. Pretty much all the apps are the same as kit Kat at the moment other than contacts and calculator. The biggest change so far are the notification system and the settings menu.

    Haven't found a way to dismiss more than one notification at a time.

    chromecasting with netflix is having issues. App just crashes. if you play it directly on the device it works fine, but the minute you try to cast it crashes.

    Nexus isn't necessarily dead, per head of Nexus and Android development.


    Just too lazy to find a link. He said the Silver line doesn't necessarily mean the end of the Nexus line. Wouldn't comment on the Silver lines though.

    I'm on Android L.

    Voice dictation button on material keyboard is missing unless there is a new way to activate?

    I can't believe it's taking this long, Voice looks so outdated and I can't even set it as my default sms app.

    Yeah I'm almost at the point where I'm going to just port my google voice number over to my phone :(. I'm still holding out hope. Probably give it until the next Nexus phone or until the official release of L in the fall.

    Loving Android L so far on my Nexus 5. Very smooth even for a developer preview. Obviously some apps aren't compatible yet with it, but other than that, I haven't really found any issues with it thus far.
