Android Authority has finally launched Android 10 the latest version of the Android operating system for android phones. Though it’s been available as a beta release under the name Android Q, the new version is named Android 10, it has nothing to do with the letter Q. Which makes it the first time in 10 years that the mobile operating system doesn’t have a dessert-themed name.
Here are the top ten features of newly launched Android 10, some of which have been available in the prerelease, plus a couple that were not. Also, keep in mind that not all of these features are launching right away, and when they do they might be available only on Google's own Pixel devices first.
