Android 16 review: It’s actually a big update, and I don’t want to hear otherwise
Android 16 certainly won't impress you with its design, but its many impactful changes are worth getting excited for

Today is the big day: Google just released Android 16 to the public. The update is rolling out now to the Pixel 6 and later, and the update’s source code is now available to developers on the Android Open Source Project.
While Android 16 is classified as a major update, it certainly doesn’t look or feel like one on the surface. That’s because this initial release lacks many of the marquee features Google announced last month, such as the Material 3 Expressive redesign and the new Desktop Mode experience.
