Extremely stable

Battery life was definitely excellent. Maybe it didn't have Doze but I've never had battery life as good as on KitKat, either with Lollipop or Marshmallow. For the record, I've done a factory reset multiple times and put a brand new battery in my Samsung Galaxy.

With your Experience on Android versions. Which one is your best and worst Android Operating system?!!

The best android version has always been the latest one. Ics was a big change and backbone for jellybean and KitKat. ICS had its flaws and kept improving until KitKat where it was perfected. Lollipop was the next big upgrade which marshmallow is based upon. Marshmallow is an improvement on lollipop and I believe Android N will perfect it. The worst android version ever was android 3.0 honeycomb. Even Google knew it was an error and they had to abandon it.

But op, u had to copy and paste ur post and make it look like ur the one that wrote it lol. At least post the source na.

to enjoy lollipop, you need a ram of 2gb at least. If you do a test on kitkat and lollipop in a 2gb ram phone, you'll observe that KK system uses 500-700mb of ur ram, but LP uses a wooping 1200-1400mb of your ram. So gamers and multitaskers, which is better

Actually in Android free RAM is wasted ram unless there's a memory leak. Rams are meant to be used. If u have a 2gb RAM device and u are having 1.3-1.5gb free RAM then ur device is not working properly. The rams are meant to cache apps for fast launching and less battery usage.

You better upgrade and use Lollipop. It's far better than kitkat.

Kk was based on dalvik while the newer os versions are based on art. I agree that kk is more stable but the latter versions will also be more stable when Google understands dalvik better.

MM is the second os based on it. Expect N to be what KK is and more.

Funny. Gingerbread was good in its time, but it experienced lots of lags, on top of that it was as ugly as hell. Scrolling was not very smooth and there was a huge gap between android and ios experience. Ics is the version that closed the gap between android and ios with a more beautiful interface and smoother scrolling. why don't I try running ashpalt 8 or mortal combat x on gingerbread.

I actually played Asphalt 8 on my Tecno n3, didn't lag. And only 512 mb ram 1ghz core.
