If you enjoy these, then how about you leave a "Super Thanks" ;)

I'm buying my first pixel phone ever.. super excited to get deeper into the core ecosystem of google and Android!!

I never had to open google lens to scan QR codes previously. I would just launch the camera via double tap power and then hold thumb on qr code as if to fix focus, and a link would pop up underneath.

I miss those times when a new Android version actually got new features and huge improvements. Now you only get a couple of new UI accent colors :/

I like the adjustable haptics and the battery menu. I had an app running in the background going to restrict it. Thanks for the video!

I really struggled to install Android 13 using the side load method since it was not showing on the OTA. Finally found a way to get the OTA update with the Beta opt-in hack. Enjoying Android 13 now on my Pixel

My top 3 features are:
1.The new material you color additions.
2. The Media player.
3. The back tap to turn on flashlight.
Thank you for sharing.

Have you tried multi device audio broadcast in Android 13. It should be enabled because of Bluetooth le 3 codec. Basically allows one to share audio to two wireless devices and is the dual audio jack hub for Bluetooth.

Nothing wallpapers are there in the drive link 😄

Idk about everyone else but I want lock screen widgets back or some form of customization.
IOS finally got that feature and Android removed it years ago.
I've noticed that while very slowly IOS has been allowing more customization while Android has been removing it. I'm talking about straight up Android not skinned versions.
We used to have lock screen widgets (Jelly bean). In Android 11 we used to be able to change our quick toggle menu's icons, font, and color.

Those are some damn good wallpapers. Probably the best ones so far.

Just received my update. No issues so far. Thanks for the easy to follow and enlightening video!

Thank you, Damien, for all of the information on the new Android 13. Just received my update, yesterday, on my Pixel 5. I will be playing this and your other videos on the changes. At least I can play with these changes before they come to my OnePlus 10 Pro. There is going to be a great deal of stop, starts, rewinds and forwards on these videos. Thanks to you and the crew. Cheers!

Best update - Nova Launcher works without freezing when swiping home again! Woah, only been 3 years?

[jimichan]

I wish you'd be a little more specific about how we access these features. For example: Where is the photo picker? I also didn't get those new quick settings tiles, unless I have to add them from somewhere 🤷‍♂

[apusista]

Not really major but some are nice, like YouTube on Lock screen... the phone however, (Pixel 6 Pro) seems much improved in terms of general use, less glitches... which is GREAT! 😀

Would have wanted the return or at least possibility of the old back gesture from the left or right of the bottom edge. In most of the games I accidentally hit the back gesture and it's annoying a.f. Or at least if they insist on having it left and right, let me decide witch zone from left and right triggers this gesture.

[Adeus]

Quick tap is awesome for instant flashlight!

[atassano]

Great!! I am fan of Google. I'm using a Pixel 5 with Android 13. Where can I download the backgrounds of 13 you showed at the end of the video? Thanks in advance!!

QR codes before weren't that hard to get to. You make it sound like you had to go through several steps before to get the QR scanner, but in reality, most camera apps have native QR functionality, and the camera app is usually mapped to a double press of the power button. press power twice, scan QR code, done. not complicated at all. The quick settings QR scanner was unneeded.
