What is the difference between Provider<T> and Lazy<T>?

I know that Lazy<T> retrieves alway the same type. But when T is bound in Dagger2 as @Singleton then I assume it is the same as Lazy?

http://google.github.io/dagger/api/2.0/dagger/Lazy.html explains that all in detail with examples.

You are correct that calls to Lazy.get() for something bound as a singleton will return the same instance even for different lazy instances.
