Android 2.3 Gingerbread Shown In Google Video

Courtesy of Google Hong Kong, an official-looking video showing off Google’s upcoming Android OS version (2.3 Gingerbread) has been outed.

The video, although unfortunately in Cantonese, shows off a voice-search feature on the upcoming OS on what appears to be a Nexus One. As well as this we get a better look at how the in-development OS is going to look when it is finally outed, with some minor changes being seen in the interface and status bar. The video can be found in the link at the bottom.

So far we’ve seen very little of Gingerbread, with only a small teaser from Eric Schmidt last month at the Web 2.0 summit who had what is presumed to be the Google Nexus S with Android 2.3 Gingerbread already on the device. Unfortunately all he had time to show off was the CRT TV power off function. At the same event, Schmidt said 2.3 is coming out “in the next few weeks”. We could be looking at a Christmas release here folks.
