Android updates are released periodically with themes based on sweets and other popular confectionaries. Updates are released for phones running stock Android or phones manufactured by Google. Other branded phones receive updates at a later date, in order for the manufacturers to customize the operating system (OS) according to their needs. Smartphones, other than the branded phones, use an OS based on Android, known as vanilla Android.
But the constant updates of Android devices could be a hazard for the consumers. As the new patches could have glitches or security loopholes, it ends up being a security risk for phone-users.
Android phones have reached 1.5 billion units as of 2011. The majority of the Android devices have been captured by 4 major manufacturers. These include LG, HTC, Samsung, and Motorola Mobility.
