January 10, 2025 5.0 Overall I'd say android 11 has giving me a sense of satisfaction, knowing my phone is capable of keeping up with my fast paced entrepreneurial lifestyle. Keep the versions coming Android. Pros Android 11 Tops them all. The powerhouse of all mobile operating systems. I've been a full fledged believer in android since my first use. Cons The only thing about android 11 I'd consider a con is ; the hidden game in the software version. I just don't get the point of it. Switched from [iOS14](https://www.capterra.com/p/228981/iOS14/) Androids functionality and usability Tops apple any day of the week. Review Source CW Ceon W. Field analyst Research Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The best mobile software." July 2, 2022 5.0 The software is smooth in operation and many issues that were present in older versions of android such as device freezing are basically non-existent. Pros The software offers high-end products and performance on many products that are affordable and catered to everyone's spending range. Cons The updates for many of the apps that are part of the manufacturers' package seem to use a lot of hard drive space for doing the same function they were doing before the update with not many notable or significant differences or updates catered for the users' direct benefit. Switched from [iOS14](https://www.capterra.com/p/228981/iOS14/) Android has deeper integration with most of the other devices that are being produced globally and cross-electronic communication is simpler and more reliable. Review Source WL Wei L. Manager Food & Beverages Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Reliable but Now Outdated" August 13, 2026 5.0 reliable operating system and worked. However, because it is an older version, get newer version instead. Pros Stable, easy to use, and worked well on many devices. It offered good app compatibility, useful notification controls Cons Outdated. Security updates and support are limited on many devices, and some newer apps and features might not work anymore Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Project Manager Real Estate Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "General Review or Android 11 ( Nothing Amazing)" August 28, 2025 2.0 It was okay, not amazing. Some of the new features like better notifications and permission controls were cool, but overall the software felt kinda clunky and not as smooth as I expected. It worked, but it didn’t really blow me away. Pros While I wasn’t a big fan of the software overall, I did appreciate the improved control over app permissions and the way notifications were grouped more clearly. Even if the rest of the update didn’t feel like a major improvement, those features at least made daily use a little easier. Cons The software often felt unfinished and a bit clunky. Some features seemed like changes for the sake of change rather than true improvements. Certain updates caused compatibility issues, and overall performance didn’t always feel stable, which made it more frustrating than helpful at times. Switched from [iOS14](https://www.capterra.com/p/228981/iOS14/)[Apple Pay](https://www.capterra.com/p/212840/Apple-Pay/)[iCloud](https://www.capterra.com/p/204717/iCloud/)[Windows 11](https://www.capterra.com/p/251507/Windows-11/) At the moment I just felt the need for the change Review Source MA Mohammad A.

I love it really as it gives exactly what I am looking for. Pros The new update 11 gives more support to foldable phones as it supports the sensors, it supports more 5G, It minimized the number of times applications will crash. Cons Upon the first time to update to Android 11 few applications may not work at the beginning. Alternatives considered [Ubuntu](https://www.capterra.com/p/229058/Ubuntu/) Reason for choosing Android 11 It is more flexible, Price is much more acceptable, more updates. Customer service is way better than Ubuntu. Switched from [iOS14](https://www.capterra.com/p/228981/iOS14/) Windows because old fashion and all phones are moving to accommodate Android. Apple systems are expensive and not affordable for many users. Review Source Evelyn F.

After Symbian, Android does have the best and most user-friendly interface currently existing in any mobile device. It is as well the most open and powerful platform in the market right now. Pros Easy to Customize User-friendly user-interface. Widely open to perform activities highly restricted in other systems as IOS Very compatible. Affordable. Cons Step by step, the system has begun a process to make some tasks autonomous without human acceptance. Alternatives considered [iOS14](https://www.capterra.com/p/228981/iOS14/) Reason for choosing Android 11 Android allows the user to perform several tasks that are unreachable in any other mobile device. The Android user interface is by far better and easier to use than any other mobile operating system in the market right now. Review Source JC Jasmine C.

May 31, 2022 5.0 How at times it can lag an go slow but once your phone is charged fully it's the best!! Pros What I most like about this is that the software doesn't have an update every time a new phone is made. I also like the quality of space in the phone.

It lets you control app permissions better, like giving one-time access to your location or camera. Notifications are grouped, so you can manage important messages more easily. The chat bubbles let you keep conversations open while using other app. Overall, it's more organized and user-friendly. Cons Android 11 has a few downsides. The new privacy settings can feel a bit confusing for some people. Battery life might not be as good, with certain apps using more power in the background. The chat bubbles can get annoying or cluttered for some users. Also, not all apps work perfectly on Android 11, causing occasional glitches. Plus, the update isn't available on every phone, so not everyone can use it. Review Source MC Marian C.
