Android Kit Kat: When an Operating System Is a Delicacy

This article would be focusing on variable features of the Kit Kat operating system through the following lines of the blog.
Introducing Android Kit Kat
What happens when the world's favorite break time treat and the finest opens source operating system get together? They come up with nothing but wonders. This is what Android 4.4 Kit Kat is. The year began with a rumor that the next operating system what Android was coming up was the Key Lime Pie. However, this rumor is totally scraped off as Google has surprised the world with the next iteration as Android Kit Kat that was announced on 3 September 2013.
Android has been known for naming the operating systems after deserts. Be it the Cup cake, Donut, ‰clair, Froyo, Gingerbread, Honey Comb, Ice Cream Sandwich, and the Jelly Bean, these operating systems some way or another have been related to delicacies. However, this time Google has licensed the name from the famous break time snack of Nestle and Hershey's Kit Kat. This would be the first time Google would be opting from a branded name than the generic desert names.
It definitely seems a stroke of genius from Google, to tie - up with Nestle for the next installment of Android. Nevertheless, one of the biggest twist to this deal was none of the Giants, be it Google or Nestle invested a single cent in this deal. The whole idea of scraping the rumored Android 5 Key Lime Pie was that the general people still do not have taste of the Key Lime Pie yet. They have more familiarity with Kit Kat as a confectionary sweet. Before anything was leaked back in 2012, the deal was made.
What to expect from the Android Kit Kat
There is no revelation about anything of the operating system. But one thing is for sure that the operating system would be compatible with devices ran on Android with lower RAM ability like 512MB as well as 2.3 Ginger bread, which is an older version of the operating system.
