That screenshot is utterly unreadable. It makes my eyes hurt. For the young people out there, I'm not exaggerating or being metaphorical. Literally pain in my eyes as they try (and fail) to focus on the appropriate UI elements.

I was going to upgrade to an iPhone 16 this week. I might be checking out Google or Samsung devices instead.

You might want to look at the new design language that Android is going for:

I think it's also just ugly to be honest. Completely opposite of Apple's values of focusing on one thing at a time and even basic grid alignment. And I am an Apple fanboy....

I highly recommend giving the S Ultra series a try. I use them for the built-in stylus, I had a few Note devices before the S.

Once you realise what life with a stylus is like, you'll not accept anything less.

I modify my devices slightly to make the stylus easier to remove, if you're interested I could show it off.

It’s a developer beta, don’t assume the release version will look like this mess.
