Canonical recently announced that the mobile Ubuntu operating system was activated on the 10,000 devices, which is an important milestone.

The mobile Ubuntu project was announced in early 2013, and the development team has been working on it since then. It took them some time to come up with an available version, and then they made continuous improvements on this basis.

The 10,000 milestone was important because the company itself did not sell any device loaded with the operating system. So far, only Nexus users (mobile phones or tablets) can install it. This is of great significance for an operating system that only provides downloads.

"Ubuntu mobile phone/tablet users need to log on to their Ubuntu One account on their devices to download or update the application. This allows us to provide users with a lot of features from Android or iOS, such as automatically re-installing all applications on a novice machine or After resetting the mobile phone, or browsing the Mall Website (soon released) you can directly install the application on the device."

"Another effect of this function is that it allows us to know how many unique Ubuntu One accounts have logged on to the mall to download the application, and this number has exceeded 10,000 this week ." Said Michal Hall of cool.

Currently, you do not need to delete Android on the Nexus device because it supports dual-boot and there are several other methods. The devices pre-installed with the Ubuntu system will be shipped later this year, hoping that the community members will be very enthusiastic before the holiday season.

Canonical has also set up a Ubuntu SDK to help developers develop applications for this new operating system, and many native applications have been transplanted from other platforms. They are not ready yet, but there are still a few months before the official release, and there is still a lot of time to prepare enough native applications, not just alternative web applications.

If you have a Nexus 4 phone or a Nexus 7 tablet, you can install Ubuntu on it now. The details are still rough, but you will find that the devices you are already familiar with will become very different. please spend more time and then you will like them.
