It includes a dramatic (tenfold) increase in performance of rendering georeferenced plates, as long as you're running Android 5 or later. It also supports better panning and zooming of the map (simultaneously) which results in a smoother user experience.

I just did a quick test on my LG G2 phone. With 3.8.1 loading an approach chart took several seconds. Now with 3.8.2 it's just like the blink of an eye. Good stuff!

But if I scroll slowly with a long touch on the screen, the new area isn't rendered. After a fast swipe rendering works as usual again. Tested with Moto G 2014 and Nexus 7 2012.‌‌
