Android 16's recent release to Pixel users is underwhelming, offering minimal visual or functional changes despite a promising redesign with Material 3 Expressive. The major overhaul is delayed, leading to disappointment, especially as Apple unveils its own new design, Liquid Glass, which has received mixed reviews. Google risks missing a marketing opportunity by not showcasing the redesign early, while Android's fragmentation continues to affect user expectations and experience.
