Android L, the highly-anticipated update to Google's popular operating system, is reportedly set to be released sometime during the Fall of this year. Fans of the Google OS can expect the L update to come out anytime between September and November.

According to reports, the "L" on Android 5.0 L stands for Lollipop, and that the latest Android update from Google is expected to be the most extensive update the operating system has had since 2008. Reports also claim that Android users can expect dramatic changes in the operating system's display and interface, perhaps comparable to the level of what Apple has done on its iOS7 update.

The latest Android OS update is said to possess new features, which were then exclusive to iOS devices, including multi-tasking abilities and new lock screen functions.

Apart from the significant change to its display and user interface, rumor has it that the Android 5.0 L update will also offer a drastic improvement when it comes to the operating system's performance and speed. Another notable 5.0 L feature that can be anticipated on the upcoming update is apparently its 64-bit architecture support.

Improved battery life for an Android 5.0 L based smartphone also appears to be one of the promising features that the Lollipop purportedly brings.

Android fans from all over the world can also expect the latest Google mobile platform to be launched alongside the also highly-anticipated Google mobile phone project, Nexus. The upcoming Google smartphone is also projected to be launched around the same time as the Android 5.0 L update.
