The advent of Android 12 has made exceptional changes in the way to user interface looks in the Android ecosystem. “Material You” has the capacity to transform the User interface based entirely on our preferences and past usage. I wish Google would open up the Material You to millions of users across the world who wouldn’t have the chance to buy a device that supports Android 12. Google is taking serious strides in terms of features in the Android ecosystem but the failure to reach it to the budget customers across the world makes the entire effort almost not worth it.
