How could you even tell without an organic LED screen?

While you can't tell it's "true" black without an OLED, it's clearly a dark grey.

#14I guess they ran out of new feature ideas ... and release names.

Yes, and other Android phones probably never, except some current flagships who'll get it in 6+ months.

#16Wow, the bar at the bottom is a rip-off of iOS
That's equally absurd that a horizontal bar is a rip-off and that Google ripped it off. I've been running my Samsung with only gestures for months now, I can't see a reason to need something like that.

#17How will Google avoid being sued (like Amazon / Audible is being sued https://www.reuters.com/article/us-amazon-com-lawsuit/top-u-... ) for the "Live Caption" feature?
For example by making it a feature that isn't exclusively used for books?
I suspect it's implemented using the new Playback Capture API (https://developer.android.com/preview/features/playback-capt...) which provides an opt-out, too.

#18Great to see more attention being put on reducing distractions. The 'Digital Wellbeing' features are great, as well as the name itself.

Some phones in the Android One program should also have a decent chance of getting it quickly. Everything else will probably get quite a few of the features from the closed source parts of Android that are shipped by the Play Store anyway.
