Android M Discussion

Has anybody else flashed the M preview yet? I decided to give it a go last night and so far it seems to be pretty nice. I'm loving that the notification menu pulls down wherever you swipe, rather than dead center. Split keyboard is alright. For the most part it runs smooth, but there are occasional hangups, which is to be expected in an early beta.

Also, the changes to volume control and do not disturb are very much welcome....it's much better now.

Battery life on the first full day. I used it for browsing in the morning + clerical stuff at church(about 2 hours worth of use there) then I came home and watched Terminator 3 on it for 2 hours. I got 6h 10m of SoT on it, which is up from my usual 4ish.

Honestly I personally don't have the guts to flash anything, but one of my friends at work, has tried Android M, and he is raving about all of the same new Android M features that you have mentioned.

Personally, I am looking forward to it rolling out this Fall.
