What's not cool:
- No gestures!!
- No improvement in camera quality
- Battery backup isn't good (heavy battery drain while the phone is in standby)
- Nightlight/blue light filter not included
- No double tap to wake
- Apart from new icons dropdown notification panel (which you may like or not) and vertical animations, nothing is new with the UI, feels pretty much like Oreo
-4K no longer works with Prime video
