Droid Life Show: Episode 235 - Android 11 Beta Squad

On this episode of the DL Show, we are diving into Android 11 Beta! The most stable build of Android 11 is here and available to anyone with a Pixel 2 or higher, so we'll talk about what's new and whether or not this is stable enough for you to run it.

We also want to talk about Pixel Buds updates, Samsung Unpacked for the Note 20, OnePlus Z and Pods, and if any of you are making the move to YouTube Music.

Trivia is back! This week's prizes include a bunch of Motorola's sweet new charging products.

We’ll be live at 12:00PM Pacific (3:00PM Eastern).

Tried to switch from GPM to YouTube Music and laughed! If I start streaming a music channel and turn my phone screen off the music stops! FAIL. Uninstalled.

One weird bug for me is that when I start a YouTube video, it glitches and the screen flashes and stutters ... but it fixes itself if I skip forward in the video

Eye love Android 11. Almost everything about it. And Eye also still get about 11 to 20 updates every Wednesday. Also not fair to compare Android to a company like Samsung. They are only updating their phones and think about how many phones Android has to update. Even the Pixels. They are all made from different manufacturers.. Eye also NJoy the separation in the notification panel. Something different to look at. And 11 just looks and feels better... One more thing. If you don't like the beta, you don't have to load or flash it. And Eye'm almost sure average users aren't watching these videos and they're definitely not flashing or installing betas. They don't even know what that is. Lol some average users don't even know about updates

thank you for (finally?) publicly calling out google on their announce/rollout modus operandi. Hopefully your peers will join you instead of hiding behind the "it's a beta'' wall of excuses.
