FU Google, I haven't even got Nougat on my god dam phone and you are already preparing 8.0, what is this? a race to empty my pockets meanwhile I try to get you???
let USERSSS USE THEYR god dam phones at least 2 years, with updating the fricking current OS version with improvements its more than enough, that way devices will not be obsolete faster than they are being.

          [deleted post]What? Stupid people say they, the real Android fans which have a bit of software knowledge won't say it...a bit of limiting can be good (a bit, not a ton like on IOS).

                  Interesting, but not enough for a full system release. And some OEMs already integrated some features like PiP and sorting notifications by category.

                        I heard today that Katy Perry likes girls in reality, not just in songs. I didn't believed this day have something else to shock me and now Android 8.0 O is released? Omg , yeah! It would be nice to be Oreo, but I think Google will use their database to troll us again with another weird candy :)))). Background limits sounds good, it's something that Apple is doing from years on IOS and we all know how good it works, so 10 points to Google. The notification things sounds good, the PiP mode should be like the minimised video from YouTube (right?) and the Autofill API may be useful for some...and LDAC used until now only on Sony phones becomes mainstream (yeeeeeees, my Sony wireless headphones will have that good hi-res sound even on Pixel 2 which I will buy sometime after it's released in fall)... I'm happy Chrome OS gets better and better, I love how simple to use and snappy is, all I miss from the Windows big brother is the professional programs , maybe devs will port them to Chrome OS if it gets popular (like it would looking in the last years sales)... This is a happy day! :)

                          Little known fact that the first two versions of Android were called "Android Alpha" and "Android Beta" before starting with the naming scheme presented in "Android Cupcake".

                            PiP has always been there on samsung handsets since the s3 i believe. And i was from there own video player.
