I don’t have an android, I have iPhone 15 Pro Max, but I enjoy seeing what’s new on both sides. Some of yall have no life’s hating on the other side 🤣 just be happy

[HigherQualityUploads]

No offense, but how does Android Authority have better information about the future of Google's operating systems than Google themselves? The way they handled messaging for this I/O has been nothing short of abysmal.

Private space is welcome - something Samsung has had for a long time. The phone theft locking is excellent! Very welcome.

[JohnMushitu]

That Theft lock detection is almost genius

[kavishdhamija]

private space will probably help a lot with magisk and revanced 🕊

[aurathedraak]

Gonna love private space and cloud space.

[OnlyCitrus]

they really put Gemini before their core OS

[Adarlamusia]

02:56 this feature is really interesting !

[ucheucheuche]

That phone-stolen-detection would be great. If Google could just add an auto-detonate-device feature as well, that would be the perfect gift to that thief (data backup up of course) 😏

[kindofanmol]

I just want them to force devs to make apps edge-to-edge by default. The black bars on the top and bottom are so hideous.

[Peterstarzynskitech]

I cant wait for this to come to my samsung galaxy s24 Ultra.

[adobahbotchway]

Private Space = Secure Mode in Samsung galaxy phones... 😂

[Tackyauto]

Whats that band at around 6:19? Is there a version for the Apple Watch (49mm)?

[AboobacerJaleel-kewl]

I have traveled many times in this service which is easy and specialized in services

[basdfgwe]

Some of these feel like they are features from samsung : samsung knox, app pairs... Etc...

[hockeyjss]

How different is private space from secure folder ?

[baddad]

Love it on my Pixel Fold had all the betas so far.

[neodidi]

Private space has been on Redmi for a while

[masmat]

I have been using this for a very long time.

[randallowens]

So private space is basically the same thing as Samsung secure folder?
