Hi Everyone, I had updated Z6 Pro with Trial version of A 14 on 29th Feb.

And here's my initial thoughts on this.

Overall the biggest visual change would be the notification panel. It is revamped with blur effect in the background. Though 2 things not to like about is that it doesn't look good in dark mode and in landscape mode only 4 menus are available so you have to swipe a lot of you want to disable/enable anything.

There are addition of 5 more AOD.

One additional live wallpaper has been included which I feel consume more battery 🔋.

One more thing that I haven't seen in any review is the increase of virtual RAM .

Earlier it was only 2 GB which now have been equal to the original RAM.


 2 things that are missing right now is Battery Health and Kinetic Wallpapers.


Overall I haven't seen any major bug except phone getting a bit more warmer and battery backup has been degraded a bit. Another problem is with camera which is constantly looking for focus.


1 great feature that I liked the most would be - Background music in YouTube which can be enabled in Sidebar.


And now more apps got the minimum window support.


Note - This is just a day review so will update when will experience something new.
