ANDROID 9

Introduction

Android 9 is officially here and we would be remiss not to mention our slight disappointment at the Pie moniker. Don't get us wrong, pie sounds perfectly mouth-watering and playful, but perhaps just a bit too plain for an Android name? Considering the track record so far, that is. Also, not using the π symbol, just seems like a massive missed opportunity.                                                                                                                      Anyway, naming aside, there are some really interesting new features to look forward to in Android 9. That being said, "new" is rather relative here. Google's development process for Android is becoming an increasingly open and feedback-based one. More than anything, however, such a large mass of people is paying close attention to the dev process, nowadays, that few things can truly come as a surprise in a new release.
Android 9 Pie review
                                                                                                                                                           Still, now that Android 9 is officially out of the beta channels and making its way into the general public, we wanted to take the opportunity to go through some of the main additions to AOSP in more detail and see just how much they have changed/matured, since our review of the first Android P public beta.
Spoiler alert, If you've been keeping up with the development of Android 9 over the past few months, there's nothing really new or shocking coming up ahead. So, to spice things up further, we also took the liberty of re-running our standard set of benchmarks on a Google Pixel 2 XL unit, running the latest public Pie build. We also wanted to see just how much effect on the battery endurance the OS update has. So, we ran our standard endurance routine on the Pie-infused Pixel 2 XL, as well.

Buget Smartphone

Xiaomi has a habit of whipping out new phones with category-defying features and specifications, much to the continuing delight of Indian smartphone buyers. This has catapulted the company to the  number one position  in terms of market share in just a few years' time. Xiaomi has made a name for itself with its hardware as well as the custom MIUI Android ROM, which has loads of features and a number of loyal fans. Why is why, the company's decision to release an entry-level smartphone with very basic specifications and the cut-down Android Go operating system came as a bit of a surprise. The new  Redmi Go  might seem weak on paper, especially in the shadow of the recently released  Redmi Note 7  ( Review ) and  Redmi Note 7 Pro  ( Review ), but it's important to remember what exactly mobile phones priced below Rs. 5,000 have been like before now. Phones at this level that we've reviewed in the past have had awful low-resolution screens with ba...
