Android 10 Features

Dark Theme: As the name suggests, it transforms the theme to “Dark” which eases the strain on the eyes especially during night while takes away excess stress on the battery as well. It is more soothing than the bright theme and many apps have already purported it and more are joining every week.

Sound Amplifier: Irritated with the background noise even when listening to your favorite songs or calling a friend or watching a movie? The built-in Sound Amplifier with Sound Visualizer reduces background noises and tailors frequencies based on your hearing so suit you seamlessly.

Gesture Navigation: It is a contentious feature but it is optional and could take a few days to adapt to it but once you did, there’s no going back although there are some shortfalls. Gesture Navigation introduced with Android 10 replaced any virtual buttons with a slim slider that sits on the bottom edge of the display. Drag it to swipe between apps or switch it up a bit to visit the Home screen or swipe it up to the center to view recent apps preview. Use both the left and right edges that doubles as ‘back’ button thereby catering a large screen real estate.

Privacy & Location Controls: With Android 10, you can ease of control on your privacy and location. Check out your web and app activities and select what you want to share and whatnot with new privacy settings. Award location to any app(s) based on your will so no more frill over apps using location without your consent.

5G & Foldable Ready: Android 10 now supports flawless support to foldable displays may it be folded or unfolded. Google has also added support to 5G network allowing the users to access 5G services if their phones are compatible with it without any hassle.

Security Updates: Instead of waiting for weeks for either the OEMs or the carrier send security updates, the Project Mainline makes it sure that Android 10 enabled smartphones to get the latest security patches and bug fixes via Google Play Store although traditional updates will continue due to their upper hand in resolving certain issues with the smartphone or any functionalities.

Digital Wellbeing: Teased previously as well, the newly revamped Digital Wellbeing app on Android 10 that enables creating and maintaining better habits w.r.t. using smartphones. It also comes with Focus Mode where users can add apps for distraction-free work.

Why my Doogee phone isn’t getting any update?

If you have gone through the explicit list I have created above, you must have guessed if your phone is listed under phones that are likely to get the update, phones that could get the update and finally, those which will not get the update for sure. If you fall under the third category, you might be wondering why?

The answer is complex since there are too many moving parts involved in the process of rolling out an update and incompatibility at any stage can cause the phone to become unsupportive. For example, the usual process is Google (Android) → OEM → End User. However, if there’s a carrier or an unlocked device involved in the process, it becomes Google → OEM → Carrier → End-user. The whole process can take some time and if the OEM is actually creating a custom UI for the stock Android OS, expect it to delay further.

Now, on Google’s side, it launches a new Android OS every year but with slightly higher minimum prerequisites and abundant features. On the OEM’s side, it releases many phones a year with varying specifications and processors which means tweaking the stock Android with its custom UI (if any) and then programming it to fit suitably for phones with different specs. Here, the processor must be compatible to support two major upgrades and must have drivers needed to support the update as well. This creates a lot of friction and thus, your OEM will usually cease support to phones released a year or more before Android 10 hits the market which means it doesn’t have to look out for old phones but concentrate on newer models.

What to do if my Doogee smartphone isn’t getting any update?

In case you aren’t satisfied or just fed up of using the same Android OS or say the same Android platform, you can search for compatible custom ROMs available for your phone such as LineageOS, Pixel Experience, etc. You can also try a phone that comes with OEM’s custom UI and not a stock Android which has a revamped UI that must spice up your phone experience. You can also buy a new phone to get the latest Android update if you want.
