Been running Android 13 on my Pixel 5 (which is my main device) since Beta 3.2, and it's leagues better than and more stable than Android 12 ever was for me

I've recently been running Android 13 Beta 3 on my Pixel 5, and I have to say, it's so stable for me that I've forgotten it's even still in beta. I've had no issues so far. But that said, I still can't wait for the final release of Android 13, and hopefully not too long after, Google will make some big, awesome changes by bringing Android 14.

I've been on beta since 13.2, it's way better than 12 ever was for me. The thing I like the most is just how much smoother it feels in almost every way over android 12, still waiting for 13.4

Android 13 beta's were good on my Pixel 6. The only trouble I had was a bad battery life with version 3.3 For me Android 13 is what Android 12 should have been! With only a few minor tweaks makes 13 better than 12.

I've been running it since the first public beta on pixel 6 and i never encountered any major issues, it's the smoothest beta in android history imo

Been running it since beta 2 and yeah I'm enjoying it a lot my favorite feature is aesthetic but the media player update. Really enjoy looking at that one.

Here I’ve been BEGGING to bring back frameless icons… and Google goes finding more icons in various UI elements to put some ugly frames around

I upgraded from Android 12 stable to Android 13 beta 4 directly and man my pixel battery performance is much better. I was getting average 5 hours of SOT But after updating to 13 my avg SOT is 6 hours! Those who have a pixel 6 pro. highly recommend you to update to Android 13 beta 4. If you retrain your fingerprint sensor using the updated trainer your experience does improve a lot! did notice a small haptics bug in the gboard where the haptic intensity suddenly increases while typing.

I enjoy Android period. I can wait until the final Android 13 comes out. Android 13 is really looking nice.

When I reboot my phone (4a5G), my sound bar (Sony HT-S350) automatically turns on by it self and pair directly. Never had that problem before running on beta 4. actually needed to turn on the soundbar witha separate remote and turn on the bluetooth mode for the two to pair. But now it just turn on and automatically pair everytime after rebooting the phone. I reinitiate all network including bluetooth on my phone and rebooted both devices but the problem still remains.

Has Android 13 brought back true oled dark mode which was taken away in Android 12?

Pixel 4 here, animations are finally fixed with beta 4. I had had a sluggish phone since android 12. Finally I have my flagship experience back.

Is it just me who noticed the significant improvement of the fingerprint scanner on pixel 6.

That non-transparent navigation bar at the bottom...

[hammy]

Android 13 beta has been more stable than Android 12 lol

[ramonlisojo]

On my pixel 6 I have noticed better battery drain management. Also the fingerprint is not giving me any issues at all now . it's still not the fastest out there but at least works way better. I was having some sounds issues with beta 3 when playing video games and those have been fixed as well.

The taskbar is the best feature of android 13. Will make multitasking like a PC. Can't wait to get it on my S21 in a few months

[nuuqbgg]

How is your dark mode black!? That's the only thing I miss since Android 11...

[CCFC_]

Is android 13 going to get any more feature drops when it releases in its final form. Doesn't seem much of change from A12 compared to iOS 16

[rafmargaryan]

Am I the only one who hasn't got the update yet?
