Intro
This entry is not just copy and paste of release notes.It includes my observations about changes also.
If you are interesting in plain release notes ,open links from Source link (bottom of entry).
Keep in mind,that this blog entry is usually update few times (when i made more observations).

My observations
Tests:
- Updating IDE (It went smoothly)
- Install IDE from fresh (It went smoothly)
- Creating new project (TODO)
- Import project (I had tiny problem)
It didn't cause any problems or side effects.
It seems this week update is bit bigger than usually and contains few changes that are interesting for me.
They improve 2 things
They add lots of useful Improvements for Quick Documentation and
they improve running process is improved as you can now automatically show logcat window on run and they fix bug with "Clear log before launch" checkbox as it didn't works in past,so my last 2 problems which I had with running process are fixed.
As I do not use Gradle in my project as my project are very simple,but from what i heard and I expeirenced so far .Using Gradle with Android Studio is still big Pain in the ass.
For example:
In this version .I had a problem with import project using gradle plug-in as I saw error: "Cannot create directory path.to.myideaproject.idea" but .. appertaly,it is known issue
"Importing a project using the Android Gradle plug-in 0.6.1 and Gradle 1.6 or 1.7 will show the error: "Cannot create directory <path>.idea". The real cause of the project import failure is that this version of the Android Gradle plug-in only supports Gradle 1.8 or later." Source: https://sites.google.com/a/android.com/tools/knownissues
That's all changes that i spotted,but stay tuned for more updates about changes.

Release notes from Android Studio
Release notes from Android Studio
- Updated the IDE base to the IntelliJ EAP build #132.425 sources.
- Layout rendering
- Support for designtime attributes, which allow you to show sample data in your layouts without affecting the runtime app. For more details, see Designtime Layout Attributes.
Included layouts now render the edited (unsaved) contents of other editor buffers
The layout preview is smarter about when to trigger a re-render; for example, it will ignore edits that affect only whitespace or comments, edits to an attribute that does not yet have a value, etc.
There's now a large progress indicator in the center of the view for the first render, and a smaller indicator in the upper right corner when re-rendering after editor switches.
Fixed issue where the render preview window sometimes didn't open automatically on IDE restart, and fixed issue where switching between files would sometimes briefly show the old layout contents.
Improved error message when you accidentally use a drawable resource in place of a color resource - Text editing
Resource inlining: Dimension and integer resources are now also inlined, as well as string resources outside method calls. Perhaps more importantly, the long standing issue of resource folds showing stale contents or appearing on the wrong code statement has been fixed (see bug 60529).
The editor spell checker is now aware of the target language used in a Android string resource file, and will no longer use the English dictionary to flag "errors" in for example Spanish text in values-es/strings.xml. If your base values/ folder is not in English, use the tools:locale attribute on the root <resources> element to let the tools know what your default language is.
Theme resolution chain display (added in 0.2.10, see Android Studio 0.2.10 Released) now also handles theme attributes (such as ?foo)
Fixed XML validation for dimensions to allow floating point numbers - Android Device View, LogCat
Console code folding for elided stack frames. When an exception is nested, the VM will truncate the stack display of the inner exception. It does this when it gets to a point where the rest of the stacktrace is the same as in the outer stacktrace, but many users were not aware of that and thought they were missing vital information. In LogCat inside Android Studio, we now create a fold region on the "4 more ...lines" section, and when you expand it we reconstruct the full stack trace.
You can now view the logcat output of a particular process by just clicking on the process in the device panel. If you don't want this behavior, you can deselect the toggle button "Only show logcat from selected process" on the logcat toolbar. - Lint:
New check for duplicate words in strings
Fixed some bugs (which had resulted in false positives in source code involving enums or string arrays)
New projects: Improved package validation. Android application package names have stricter package name requirements than Java packages: Package segments cannot start with an underscore, and only ASCII letters (and digits, dots and underscores) can be used.
Misc bug fixes in the gradle build area.
