Buying new apps, books or music with your Android device may look a bit more swanky now, as Google announced the roll-out for a sharp new look for it's Google Play store.
"The new design focuses on bigger images that jump off the page," the company writes on the Official Android Blog. "Similarly themed content is grouped together so you can hone in on a magazine to read or an app to try."
The redesigned Play Store is now available for Android phones and tablets running Android 2.2 (Froyo) or above, and it's noticeably sparser and larger. Content is grouped together more closely, and Google has integrated more recommendation-based products to take advantage of the smaller display real estate. Most importantly, it's much easier to go through checkout on the mobile device, allowing for a speedier purchase of games, books and video.
While roll-out has begun today, it's important to note that it may not reach your particular phone model for the next few weeks. Still, the new look makes Google Play much prettier and more practical to use.
What do you think of the redesign? Let us know in the comments.
