App Drawer

The feed which was also available in the previous release also gets a major revamp. The App drawer is also much cleaner and gone are the days of app categorization and extra padding.

LandScape Mode

The introduction of Landscape mode also sets the tone for what would come inside Surface Duo phone announced by Microsoft which surprisingly will use Android OS. The device is supposed to have two screens (although it will not have a flexible display like Samsung) and this landscape mode is very important.
