real talk, fuck phone reviewers 10 years ago selling us on the notion of stock android being a holy grail. i wish we could see what variations there could be on the android UX rn if the idea of OEMs skinning it still stuck around.

@dogo what are you talking about, stock android 12 is absolutely gorgeous

@noiob the parts of it that are updated are really nice yeah, but some apps along with the app drawer feel to me like theyre still in android 11 visuals and it kinda clashes.

that's a personal thought tho and more than anything im saying this out of the desire for android phones/oems to have some kind of uniqueness to em again

@dogo I mean that's fair, I'm always pleasantly suprised when an app comes with a material you look

idk about the app drawer, I use a custom launcher

Follow

@dogo tbh I just don't expect Android apps to look too similar. I guess that's mostly on Google for not providing one UI library that just works but idk
