Google I/O happened last week and there was a lot to take in and dissect even from the two-hour long keynote to kick the Google's 2021 developers conference off. We highlighted our favourite moments and things that we learned from Google I/O 2021.
Google's Wear OS is about to get a revamp and overhaul thanks to their new formed partnership with Samsung. This also means that Samsung will be ditching their Tizen OS development and focus on developing Wear OS with Google. Funnily enough Fitbit is not really getting involved.
We also saw the new Android 12 with Material You design language. The UI is cleaner, more intuitive, and even more customisable now. It is technically more YOU, more personal. It is even more personal too with a Privacy Dashboard. You can even turn off your camera and mic completely if you want to.
Project Starline was amazing. In brought to life a concept that we though will never see the light of day until way later. To be fair, the technology is still in its early development stage and brings 3D and holographic telecommunications to life. It was encouraging and exciting to see, but we wonder how practical it would be if you want to bring that kind of technology to your homes or offices.
