"SDK" means "Software Development Kit".

If you are not developing apps its main use is that it gives you access to the command line tools "adb" (Android Debug Bridge, i.e. USB debugging) and "fastboot" (useful if you plan to root the device, probably not otherwise).

^^^ +1 to @Hadron (as always! )

http://developer.android.com/sdk/index.html is the first page of many (many!) pages that show you how to install the Android Studio (an integrated development environment (IDE)) and the SDK.

The IDE (Android Studio) and the SDK are the two bases that you need to develop apps.

The SDK has, an @Hadron already indicated, other, separate uses.

It's just the tip of a very interesting and pretty large iceberg of information .

Cheers!
