Android 15 hasnt even rolled out to every smartphone yet, and were already talking about Android 16.
But this year, Google started even earlier.
It also means well have a public beta earlier in the new year.
So far, Android 16 offers minimal new features compared to the last few releases.
Android 16 also supports devices with802.11az, a burgeoning standard with additional security enhancements.
Its all pretty standard improvements to the platform.
Im still struggling to pinpoint the major get in Android 16.
What is it offering me as a user?
For instance, this latest developer preview is deprecating some old accessibility code that interferes with the user experience.
Anyway, Im not complaining.
I struggle to find excitement about something that doesnt involve me yet.
Hopefully, Googles earlier call to action will speed up the update transition in 2025.
Thats a whole three to four months earlier than normally expected.
