Check your phones in the USA. It's here!

And I just updated. So far, everything looks larger. The icons, text etc but I have to check. Here's what it says after update:

At the bottom it says "Learn More". It really has a lot of information. IMO, it's worth reading.

How about app comparability? I know it was of some concern.

I just started playing with it. First, the black theme we used is no longer compatible. So all screens are white. If you turn night mode on all screens are black.
My calendar alarms didn't work at all, but I'm changing settings a I think I fixed it. 30 installed apps needed updating including SMS, email, file manager, most major apps.
The "Recent app" button has changed. Now you get entire screens of each app to page through.
Probably a lot more. I haven't noticed a slow down of the phone although I'm writing this while my apps are updating and my screen went black and I had to turn it back on. That's it for now. I'm not sure if I like this or not, since Android 9 was ok.

Well I'm still on the May 23rd build, but my apps have all been updated, save 4 legacy apps.

We'll see what tomorrow holds.

I really don't like what it did to my calendar app. Hopefully, the developer will find work arounds.

I just found an article on ComputerWorld. It's about various changes and additions in Android 10. It looks pretty good but I haven't completed it. Here it is, enjoy:

I also found out that Android 10 now can be like Widows. You can open multiple apps at the same time in what they call "Pop-ups"

This is Chrome and my calendar on my home screen. Both work.
