Ubuntu 16.04 LTS has just been released and we are very eager to enjoy it.

From its features, I have noticed headphone and some other driver support in Mac, new music and video interface, themes etc.

Now, I want to know about some interesting features of this version so that I can enjoy it the best. Can you help me to list them?

Rethink:

I asked only for interesting features, not the whole feature list. Whole feature list is in everyone's hand. More precisely, the question is: which features one must try once while exploring Ubuntu 16.04 LTS?

Thanks in advance.

  • The most exciting for a long time Ubuntu Unity user is that you can move it to the bottom.
  • You can also control desktop notifications for various applications.
  • Ubuntu Software Center has been replaced by GNOME Software.
  • You can use Snap packages.

Ubuntu 16.04 LTS ships with a modified version of Linux 4.4 kernel.

It introduces numerable improvements to system stability, performance, power efficiency, and file system handling, and introduces support for newer Intel and AMD hardware.

Improved Intel Skylake processor support
3D support in the virtual GPU driver
New driver for Corsair Vengeance K90
Support for TPM 2.0 chips
Journaled RAID 5 support

It also introduces drivers for the Logitech G29 racing wheel and enables support for hardware features on some newer Toshiba laptops.
