Since last night the release of Android 12 on the part of Google is doing very well. Smartphone like OnePlus 9 e Xiaomi Mi 11 they are receiving the package right away. The new version of the operating system called "Snow Cone" is already on the AOSP portal and is available for download for certain smartphone models, as anticipated. So the Closed Beta phase (for developers only) has ended: the Open Beta phase opens. Let's go and see all the news that Android 12 officially brought.
Android 12 has come out of the Closed Beta phase and has entered the Open Beta phase. Here's everything you need to know about the new operating system
Previously, the release of a new version of the operating system coincided with the release of an update for Pixel devices. This time it is not so and indeed, Google claims that immediately Android 12 is not available for Google Phones: the release for them is scheduled for the next few weeks. This is because other OEMs may have the "basic version”While the Pixels will have to enjoy a more personalized and therefore more“ studied ”experience.
According to what was confirmed by the company on the Google official blog, there are four pillars on which Android 12 is based: completely new design, enhanced performance, improved privacy options and user experience at the highest levels.
As for the design, we know how Material you has managed to “rejuvenate” the entire interface, also renewing the widgets and notifications. The colors change, as do the shapes of the windows, which are now more rounded and less angular.
As far as performance is concerned, Google claims that with Android 12 CPU load will be 22% lower compared to what we saw on Android 11. This means faster times in opening applications, better management of the smartphone's RAM and more fluidity. In this regard, we recall the integrated functionality Performance Class, which promises to take full advantage of the computing power of the most powerful smartphones.
La privacy on Android 12 plays an important role as we had seen previously. With the new version of the operating system, not unlike iOS, now we will see a window every time a certain component asks for permissions. Also, regarding the location via GPS, we know that there is a system similar to what Xiaomi promised, which allows you to use an approximate location.
Another noteworthy novelty is adaptation of the HEVC format automatically. If a smartphone does not support it, the Android 12 system will allow you to adapt it to the device.
