Improve the hardware ecosystem. Create an open source code for hardware makers so for example no matter what make of Bluetooth headphones you use, when you open them, the device immediately sees them and gives you that nice slide up sheet like on Pixel and iPhone.
Make this work on all Android devices by default.
Better integration with computers for things like copy/paste etc.
Instead of Samsung, Huawei, Google each making their own Windows software or Chrome OS software to make copy/paste from the phone to the pc seamless, build into Android a way to make ALL phones work with any pc (Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome) out of the box.
Basically it should work via the browser and not be OS limited. Use the already present “Nearby Share” but find a way to make it work via the pc browser, but seamlessly and in the background.
Desktop Mode standard on ALL phones from the cheapest to the premium. Whenever someone buys an Android they should rest assured this works by default.
UWB/locatin tracking. Much like iPhone can find a airtag or your phone under the couch or your wife at the market with a big arrow on the screen showing you where to go. This should also be in Android, on ALL phones grub budget to premium.
This gets used quite a lot by people and will only get more popular for tracking pets, children, cars, luggage etc. My wife constantly forgets where she left her phone. This feature would be used daily in our house.
In general I’d say all new tech added to Android must work on ALL phobes at all price points by default. Even older phones should get them via a Play Store update.
The principle is this: unify the platform from the OS point of view. There should be no differences in the OS between devices. Only the hardware and home screen skin should be different but anyone who picks up an Android should have the same features no matter price.
This will give switchers and even seasoned users confidence in their purchase and the knowledge/expectation of a certain functional standard across the board.
That’s why people like iPhone. No matter which one they get, they all work the same (except when Apple restricts certain features to Pro models)
