Google unveiled Android 4.0, aka “Ice Cream Sandwich,” in Hong Kong on Wednesday. The presentation was accompanied by Samsung’s announcement of the Galaxy Nexus, the first smartphone running Ice Cream Sandwich. Ice Cream Sandwich is a redesign of the Android OS. It has a highly visual interface, a facial-recognition feature and home-screen folders. “At one level, you could say that both Apple and Google are simply addressing the needs and wishes of increasingly sophisticated smartphone users by adding similar features and technologies,” Pund-IT’s Charles King said.
