One thing I left out of my Android 11 beta hands on was the improved Voice Access, which now understand screen context and content. That was a mistake - it's actually incredible. You don't have to use a grid or button numbers, you can just say what's on the screen. Watch:

Top Android devices and OS versions in the U.S. by market share. June 2020

I work as an Android engineer on an app with a few million users (I won't disclose the name). I have some insider info when it comes to the current Android market in the US right now. I don't think this information is a perfect representation of the US Android market, but it should be a pretty accurate estimate overall.

The world of flagships is getting very boring for those who don't take pictures

This honestly might be a very unpopular opinion, but it's something I've been thinking about for a few months now.
