Die Features dürften ja nicht mehr allzu überraschend sein.
Hier mal das Copy& paste von der offiziellen

Interessanter finde ich aber, dass Google nun Android aktiv zu vermarkten scheint - zusammen mit 5.0 wurde eine Kampange unter der tagline "Be together, not the Same" eingeführt... Für mich ein klarer Seitenhieb auf Apple, der die Vielfalt im Android-Markt herausstellen soll - mir gefällt's
So, und jetzt will ich ein neues Handy
BTW: heißt der Playstore nun wieder Market? Zumindest
hier heißt es, dass die App Androidify im Market erhältlich sei?
