Google Rolls Out Android 16 Developer Preview 2 for Pixel Devices

Get ready, tech enthusiasts! Google has just dropped Android 16 Developer Preview 2 for Pixel devices. This update aims to boost performance, enhance battery life, and offer smoother app experiences. One of the cool new features is improved haptic feedback. With Android 16, apps can create more complex haptic effects, making your phone feel more responsive. The adaptive refresh rate, which reduces power consumption, is also getting a boost. Now, apps can take better advantage of this feature.A new system photo picker with cloud search is on its way. This means you can find photos stored online even faster. Health Connect is adding a new data type to track activity intensity. Plus, there are new APIs to make system animations smoother. This preview is available for a range of Pixel devices, from the Pixel 6 to the Pixel 9 Pro XL. But remember, this is for developers only. It's not meant for daily use yet. The Android 16 Beta Program will start next month. If you're already running Android 15 QPR2 Beta 2, you can flash the new preview without wiping your device.
