I hate grey theme...
They should give option to toggle between Pure Black and Grey

So far this update looks more like a Google Feature drop, not an actual OS update.

[fluresent]

So much of this is yoinked from iOS, it’s crazy seeing both OS pull from each other!

[dracula]

No AMOLED dark theme is like google goes one step forward and then two steps back.

[yuecarbonel]

Android is now more awesome! Waiting for that android 12 to release soon

Yes finally so many rich features for media udpated, love this updates ❤️

[avs_ytb]

I am using my old Pixel 3a for testing these developer previews, excited to try out what's next.

No AMOLED dark theme? Good lord, I thought we were past this... I used to be so excited for Android updates. It's less and less true by the year.

[techeuphoria]

That picture in picture staking on side is fluently working in one ui 3 on s21ultra (android 11), and one handed with several other setting with one hand plus from samsung is so much better 😃 didn't knew it's a feature for android 12... really loving ui coming from android 9.. can't wait for 12

[dylansnyder]

I'm not mad about the gray dark theme instead of the AMOLED dark theme. Any darker color on an OLED will still save battery because it's using less white light to display said dark color (white light uses the most power). And reading white text on a pure black background hurts my eyes

[engadgetnerd]

Hell yeah! Watching Tom from Byte Review!! Man I love that guy!

Dark theme android 11 > Dark theme android 12

I hate the *grey* tint on the *Dark Theme*

It should be be *completely black* in order to *hide the camera notches/holes* on the screen. Isn't that the point of having a dark theme besides saving battery life?!?

I do like the resizable pinch to zoom picture in picture mode.

Can't wait for other features to crop out of Android 12 DP.

[matejpesl]

Custom roms have had a palette of system themes to choose from for ages. It's easy to implement and I'm sure they will.

[williamtinkham]

I'm liking what I'm seeing. Hoping to upgrade my Pixel 4 XL to the 6 for the new Android 12 drop! Good luck and I can't wait for the Beta program to start!! 😁

[nasrimarc]

This version is very optimized and the UI pretty uncluttered good job Google 👍

[paulmarsdensr]

Great video guys. All if the new features will be a good thing coming. Stat safe.

[AbdulHakim-vhqv]

Cant wait for the one-handed mode!! Very useful I must say

[heyrmi]

Why google just can't give call recording and dual apps features? I mean its so basic.

[kenbaden]

Looking forward to 12. Yes, I do prefer dark theme, but what I'm looking forward to most is the picture in picture feature!
