Besides being based on Ubuntu 15.04, the Ubuntu Touch OTA-4 stable update will include significant new features that promise to make Canonical’s mobile operating system more reliable and usable to users of the BQ Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition and Meizu MX5 Ubuntu Edition smartphones. Among some of the highlights of OTA-4 for Ubuntu Touch, we can mention support for .M3U playlists, USB Tethering support, NFC support, better Bluetooth support, hotspot support, and better 3G data setup.
