Hahah heck yeah it is! I'm not putting the Developer preview on my P5, but so far, it looks awesome... of course, I'll just wait for the Beta Program to come out! I also love the fact that for Android 12, Google is focusing heavily on user facing UI changes! It is going to look sweet, I think!

I'll be waiting for the first Beta via OTA as so far from my experience the beta versions have always been solid with small bugs I can live with.

Am going to wait for public beta as well. My 4a 5G is brand new so not keen to be too adventurous with it yet.

Yup yup, I totally totally agree with you completely! If I did have a backup spare Pixel at home, sure, I'd sideload the Developer Preview onto my backup phone. However, I don't have a backup spare Pixel phone. So, therefore, Just like everyone else here, I'll wait for the public Beta to come out, then we can all really truly get geekishly excited! hahaha

Pretty stable for a developer preview, obviously I wouldn't have put it on the pixel 5 if it was main phone. But still it's been pretty stable without any crashes or issues so far.

So 12 is supposed to have some user facing UI changes? How different does it look so far? It'll be nice to see an Android facelift

Yup, 12 is supposed to be mostly user facing changes. Later in the developer/beta builds though. .lol

There isn't much UI changes in this developer preview. Notification shade looks little more modern but mostly looks like Android 11 still. I believe UI changes are coming in later builds.

Unless you check the build number, you won't even notice that you are running Android 12 build
