The arrival of Android 17 Beta 3 unlocks a range of features affecting both multitasking and ease of use, as well as improvements in photography (and more). The software introduces the new Bubbles, which now evolve into independent floating windows for any app. In this way it is possible to minimize any app into a floating window, invoking it anywhere on the screen.

The new beta version introduces native support for the RAW4 format, a key feature for a Camera Phone like Honor Magic 8 Pro – which allows to further improve its AiMage camera system.

The Quick Settings menu has been refined, the dark theme can be managed with maximum user customization, and there are improvements also in terms of privacy and security.

How to participate in the beta program

As usual in these cases, please note that this procedure is intended for experienced users. The software itself might have stability issues since this is still an experimental release.
