System Bar

Gone are the days of a physical Home, Back and Menu button. With Honeycomb, a new system bar enabled on-screen navigation controls on your Android device.

Quick Settings

The new Quick Settings let you access essential information more easily: see the time, date, battery life and connection status of your device all in one place.

Android History from Wikipedia

Android is a mobile operating system developed by Google, based on the Linux kernel and designed primarily for touchscreen mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets. Android's user interface is mainly based on direct manipulation, using touch gestures that loosely correspond to real-world actions, such as swiping, tapping and pinching, to manipulate on-screen objects, along with a virtual keyboard for text input. In addition to touchscreen devices, Google has further developed Android TV for televisions, Android Auto for cars, and Android Wear for wrist watches, each with a specialized user interface. Variants of Android are also used on notebooks, game consoles, digital cameras, and other electronics.
