Its almost that time of the year again, when the new Android developer previews are pushed out to registered users. But we may have already received a first look at the upcoming Android 12 update thanks to XDA-Developers, along with plenty more details.

The apparent screenshots show a light beige look (possibly due to support for theming in Android 12) and plenty of rounded widgets. Its also believed that several privacy-related tweaks and additions are incoming too. So that got us wondering what Android Authority readers thought of Android 12 at this juncture.

We posted the poll on February 10 2021, and 1,099 votes were tallied as of writing. The results show that almost three-quarters of voters are liking what they see at this point. We can see why too, with the privacy features in particular (e.g. camera and mic indicators, and new privacy toggles) being pretty sensible additions.

A quarter of polled readers expressed dissatisfaction with the apparent Android 12 leaks though, but they made up a vocal majority in the comments. These comments point to the possible UI design as being the chief complaint. It seems like early days for Android 12, so its still possible the visual style could change if the screenshots were indeed accurate.

Its also possible some features might be pushed back to a later Android release though, as we saw with Android 11 and features like the double-tap-on-the-back gesture. Heres hoping we nevertheless get that missing feature and much more in Android 12s stable release.

Thats it for our Android 12 poll, thanks for voting and for submitting comments! What do you think of the Android 12 leaks? Let us know via the comments.
