Android 12 review

nani, 08 Oct 2021and so does IOS You're giving Apple too much credit, besides widgets iOS has looked nearly the same since 7

    I personally can't stand the look of Android 12. I find it garish. If it's copy of MIUI to appeal to Zoomers, then I would rather stay no higher than 11. I think One UI is looking better stock Android these days and I don't find One UI that attractive.

              Hate to say this, but alot of elements in Android 12 are inspired by MIUI. Scroll bouncing from miui 9, Power menu, quick settings, settings

                Absolutely nothing worthwhile in Android 12 or even 11 for that matter, Google now in a cycle of just endless fiddling and tinkering for no reason at all.

                  How come you don't mention a very important topic such as access to your own micro SD card on your own phone which android 11 blocked? You didn't mention that either when it happened, nor did the other major tech sites... Was it fixed with Android 12?

                        Still no sign of Google fixing its broken Android update system then.

                          Cant wait for the pixel experience custom ROM for Android 12, I hope it's the same as the pixel phones.

Dude they have been making billions of profit feeding people specsheet for years but they couldn't build an endogenous os from scratch . Tells how advanced they are . They get all the advanced (but untested) feature first because they copy iOS and pay hefty amount of money to devs working at Google.

                              Remember Kit Kat ? They had the play store codes inside of specially marked bars. Android used to be so much more fun. 😩

                                Scrolling screen shot is new feature?
                                I purchased oppo F1s in 2016 month of August, in which scrolling screen was a common feature, than I purchased realme 8 thia year and it has also same feature but now its a new feature for android 12

                                    They are smart so they will not do any drastic change in the performance. Every now and then keep on adding some features so that people keep on sticking to it. Most of the features will add no value for users. Colour, design change but no innovation....
