Today's news has suddenly come alive with interesting news for both iPad and Android tablet users: if Apple discovered us just a couple of hours ago, when would it arrive? iOS 11.3, now it seems that we can also put a date to the coming-out of Android P, because we already know when the next Google I/O.
Google I / O begins May 8
When recently we were reviewing the first clues that had been found to Android P, we already commented that at the end of January the date used to be Google I/O, the event for Android developers that is normally held in the spring by those in Mountain View and in which the next version of its mobile operating system usually makes its debut, although without an official name.
Well, indeed, we did not have to wait long to have the exact date of the event: we woke up with teasers of Google about the event that have kept fans busy all morning and now The Verge confirm that the day will start May 8, which is perfectly within expectations.
Android P will be seen for the first time there
It is not only that logic and history invite us to think that in the Google I/O will be presented Android P, but among the clues that the search engine left about the event they have included photos with a pineapple cake (pineapple cake), which is true that it is not exactly an official confirmation, but for those who know how they spend them in Mountain View all the years with the name of their next version, it will not leave much room for doubts.
Most likely the name is not Pinneaple Cake and we won't even find out in May what it really is, but most likely it is simply advertised as Android 9 or Android P. Its true name will surely not be revealed until it is officially released, when Mountain View has already had fun for a while at the expense of fans for a few months making us dizzy with suggestions and red herrings.
What news will it bring?
Although its official name is not revealed, surely they will give us at least an important advance regarding the news that it will bring us, which is what really matters to us, after all. The normal thing would be, in any case, that during the next few months, and logically more the closer we are to its debut, things will leak.
At the moment the truth is that very few clues have yet been found. Some have pointed out that with Android P will finally be implemented effectively Project Treble and there are also indications that Google It could limit a bit the resources that developers can draw on in exchange for performance improvements. We hope, however, that there is also some interesting news in terms of functionalities, which are always the ones that most attract our attention. What would you like?
