The Lenovo Chromebook Duet, the chromeOS tablet for those who want an android tablet.

What, what? a chromebook? I dont want a chromebook, I want an android tablet.. I use way more than "Chrome" on my tablet. Well, the duet does run android apps. And, it runs them well. :)

The duet starts at $249 for the 64gb model which is HALF the cost of the core m3 pixel slate, the current king of chromebook tabets. (opinion) The kicker here is that the duet includes the keyboard/trackpad/kickstand accessories IN THE BOX, something that it's competitors don't offer. One of the biggest reasons...

Am I the only one who misses the lock animation?

In the old times when I used to push the lock button (or the screen timed out) the screen would turn off like a CRT monitor in the older versions of android like the below video

but nowadays it's just subtle animation. it just feels very plain!...

/r/android reviews: Huawei and Honor line.

Device reviews are everywhere these days. From big name technology websites to lesser known blogs, and to the rising stars on YouTube. You can find hours upon hours of review content on most any well-known device out there. However a lot of these places do not focus on long term usage and fail to mention how devices hold up over the long term.

Additionally for those of you who like to hear about devices from actual users, it's hard to find a good place with reviews that aren't scattered all ove...

Do you think we'll ever see subscription based or purchasable GSIs on Android?

This thought came to me while discussing the Pixel 4\\4a(5G)\\5 with friends this weekend.
Do you think we're getting close to a point where Google\\Samsung\\LG\\Sony\\etc could start offering a GSI (for a price) which could be flashed to any (fully Treble compatible) phone?
It would give people more freedom to purchase hardware based on personal requirements and also get the software experience we lean towards?

Personally I think its what google could possibly be pushing for long term wit...

Is Android 11 too bland? What are 1-2 major changes you would want Android to release in future years?

I haven't tried Android 11 beta yet but whatever reviews I have heard or watched, it appears bland and unexciting. iOS 14 has lot of visual changes so definitely a bit more exciting. A lot of those things are already available in Android but Apple seems to have implemented them better.

While I agree that the Android platform is matured now but still if you get a chance to suggest 1-2 major changes to Android in future years, what would they be?...

In July, there is a lot going on for the security of Android image decoding, so I recommend installing this month's update ASAP. This includes a DNG memory corruption in all modern Androids, and further issues in Samsung's Qmage codec. Both rated critical and reachable via MMS. (Thread)
