Until now, the main reason for choosing Android Go firmware over the main Android edition was the lack of any elements that could be considered "bloatware". Android 13 (Go edition) comes with many of the "features" expected from official Android firmware, with Google promising "reliability, ease of use and customization." But what about the basic rationale behind Android Go firmware, which is that it will work on any phone model, no matter how "stingy" the manufacturer is on the hardware?

Google apparently concluded that the new generation of budget phones are powerful enough to run Android GO and have some non-essential but profitable features, such as the Discovery page accessible from the main screen, where you can find content selected by Google. Search algorithms. To make this not the only "improvement", Google also included the Material You interface in the scheme, albeit in a less customizable form.



So, in the unlikely event that your budget phone receives an update to Android 13 Go, you'll discover the "Material You" concept, a new interface style that allows for automatic customization of the color palette in which Android's menus are displayed. , according to the set wallpaper image on the home screen. And if even this novelty didn't seem enough, you can choose between four color schemes, customized according to the background image. This will make your phone much more distinctive, even if it is ordinary like any other smartphone with Android Go bought "on offer".

Besides the aesthetic optimizations and the junk screen added to the home screen, Android 13 Go also brings some real news, such as the right to block notifications that do not interest you, settings for individual language selection for use with different Android applications, and others, borrowed from the Android 13 firmware.
