Finally, the most anticipated Android 5 is now out of Bag ! A few days ago Google has officially released their latest Android 5.0 Lollipop along with the Nexus 6 and 9. It has been a few months we are using the beta version of Lollipop as Android L and so we already have an idea how the final build would be. Being the Android L a beta release of Android 5.0, Obviously we’ve to expect some changes, bug fixes and additional functionality in the Final release. Recently the Android 5.0 SDK is released and now we have an idea about what all changes are made in the final release of the OS.
Android L was an early release and that too a developer friendly version. It have missed a lot of stuffs even from the KitKat version. However Google has addressed all those drawbacks and bugs in the Android L and released the Final build with an entirely cool looking interface. Also the major thing that we should consider is the revamped material design UI. It now looks clearer and more professional. Now, we can have a look on changes made in the Android 5.0 Lollipop.

Status Bar and Navigation Bar Icons
In the Android 5.0 Lollipop, the icons in the status bar has changed to flat design and the navigation bar icons appears smaller. However the smaller icons in the navigation bar may be due to a higher resolution of Nexus 6.

Priority Ringing Rules
The Priority Ringing Rules in the Lollipop has evolved from the older Do Not Disturb feature in the Android L. Some slight changes are made in the UI to make it more awesome. Here is what Google has to say about the new feature:
For fewer disruptions, turn on Priority mode via your device’s volume button so only certain people and notifications get through. Or schedule recurring downtime like 10pm to 8am when only Priority notifications can get through.
