Samsung's Android 10 beta program on 10e

[Andy Bredemeyer]

Is the registration for the One UI 2 beta closed? The Samsung Members app doesn't give me the option anywhere that I can find. Thanks.

I just got the 10e and, coming from a Pixel, miss the stock Android 10 full gesture navigation. Swiping from the bottom of the screen beneath the locations where the three buttons would be isn't very satisfying.

If it doesn't show, it's closed.

And remember, a beta version isn't "I'll get the new version before anyone else does", it's "I can survive if this phone stops working, due to a bug in the beta, and I have the time to send feedback for every single bug I find".

It's the manufacturer's way of not having to pay QC engineers. There's no guarantee that a beta version isn't going to have massive bugs. (10 on the Pixels underwent 6 revisions, if I recall correctly. Mozilla Firefox' current version, 70, also spent months in beta [And 71 is already being worked on - has been for months - even before 70 was released as "done".]. Aside from not updating my video driver, I reported a few of the bugs myself. [Had to use Chrome - ugh - until some of them got fixed a bit.])

Thanks. I found the Pixel betas to be pretty usable, other than the odd app incompatibility. Guess expecting the same from Samsung is probably naive, but looks like I won't be finding out first-hand.
