Android 16 is out now. Here are the new features.
Google pixels were the first phones to receive the update and this could prove a Major (and Annoying) Problem as long as it persists. It seems the primary complaints from Folks Involve The Lock Screen, Including that it Won’T Wake Up with A Tap, The Screen Being Slow to Wake (Or Total Non -responsive) after Hitting the quarter button, and weird, vast variations in brightness. Users are reporting having to force restart their phones in some cases in order to get past past past-responsive screen. Google hasn’t Acknowledged or Issued a Fix for the Apparent Issue. It’s not clear how widespread the problem may be, considering all we’ve seen thus far is complaints on forms.
Android 16 is the latest Major update to pixel’s software. It promises an overhaled look, live updates, and increasing security features. But if the simple operation of the phone becomes more difficult with Android 16, that could prove a Major Problem for Users.
