Android 15 might finally get me to switch from the Motorola Razr to the Galaxy Z Flip

Comparing the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 with the Motorola Razr Plus (2023).

The second Android 15 developer preview is available now for eligible Pixel phones, and the software gives us another look at what we can expect when the full update rolls around. While there's a lot of excitement about official satellite connectivity, the return of the old taskbar for large-screen devices, and other features, one addition coming to Android 15 that I'm excited about aims to give more flip phones the cover screen experience they deserve.

According to Google, a new property in Android 15 will allow developers to declare that their app can be used on smaller displays like those used for cover screens on flip phones. Google says this must measure at least 1.5 inches for the shorter dimension and at least 2.4 inches for the longer dimension.
