I love how they are constantly releasing updates. There are several channels that allows you to get bug fixes quickly if you want but you can stay in the stable channel if you please so that's one of my favourite features. I love extensible it is, how Developers can easily make plugins for features they would want but the core team isn't able to tend to those requests as yet. For eg. I use a popular open source library called Butterknife that provides view injection and I was able to easily download an extension by a developer that basically allows me to use this library in a single click.

The main thing I dislike is that it's a bit resource intensive. I am having slow builds right now because I only have 6GB of RAM and a 7200rpm hard drive so I will have to get better hardware for faster builds. Yes, Gradle has improved but Android Studio is still a memory hog. I use Visual Studio for very large projects and it takes up barely half of the RAM Android Studio uses.
