      And yet still no native "Desktop Mode" when all the rest of the manufacturers have started implementing their own versions now

          It looks fine. Evidently, my favorite artist is Jackson Pollock.

              I hate the direction Android is going for. I rooted my Xperia 1 III solely because of it.

                Every time I see Android 12, I keep thinking it's catered for female preteens obsessed with TikTok and Snapchat.

                You know what had a beautiful design and felt manly and sleek? BlackBerry Bold 9900 from 2011. The one Kim Kardashian used for 5 years. I was using it yesterday while having lunch and it's gorgeous. Feels so great in the hand. BlackBerry had professional-looking designs. Too bad they're gone like HTC, LG, Palm, and the real Nokia.

                    Will any of them be an Android 11 theme?
                    Because everything about Android 12 is so very wrong.

And... moreYes, we're talking about it because this is a tech site and most people outside the tech world are completely different from most people IN the tech world. I got android 12 on my Note 20 Ultra three days ago so I'm certain adoption rate on this website is way higher.

                        If they could separate the color picking from wallpaper and the theme application, it would be better to override the colors.
                        Right now the Samsung implementation of this feature does not create proper colors, but it's Good lock modules help customizing the colors better.

                          Anonymous, 14 Jan 2022I miss windows mobile 10 elegance and beauty.Yeah, me too. I have been using only Windows phones. I signed up for the Insider program and there were updates every Tuesday. Windows mobile was in some aspects decades ahead of the other OSes and in some it really stagnated. The design was absolutely stunning unlike anything and above all it was very pragmatic.

                            More ugly garbage. This is deserving of 12.1 or less, not 13.
                            Material Design 1 was better.

                              Nexus One, 15 Jan 2022Honestly, Google just keeps disappointing me over and over ... moreagree with this, this will be my next phone if Google make it.

                                Honestly, Google just keeps disappointing me over and over since 2019 but I have no choice but stick to Android because iOS will never be my choice ever again.

                                Google should release a $99 Pixel with Snap700 series bare minimum. Take over the market by undercutting everyone. Cater to what Nokia did for over a decade. Google makes most of their through AdSense. Not selling physical hardware.

                                They can use the same camera sensor from the Pixel 2 through 5 on these $99 Pixels since most of their photo quality is software-based. Google selling a $599 Pixel 6 is a start but they should be handing these Pixels practically for free. Means will be on internet using their services.

                                    All people complaining about updates, it's not like your phone will stop working if it won't receive Android 12 or 13.. I still have a Samsung Note 3 with Nougat and it's working just fine.

                                        bet xiaomi won't include this feature in their miui because then nobody will use their useless theme app. and you still can't change your icon shape in miui for the same reason and its a feature in android from 2 years or more
