Android Central has had an incredible year covering the Android-based technology you use daily, from phone launches to some of the best apps and services.

Because so much has happened this year, we wanted to take some time to reflect on the year and think about what the Android technology space should look like in 2025.

Our job as journalists is to hold companies accountable, but we also love to provide constructive criticism. So whether it's Android 16 having more features or maybe better display options for those suffering from Pulse Width Modulation sensitivity, we want those companies to hear about it.

Over the next two weeks, you will have the opportunity to read through some of these articles; we can't wait for you to do so!

Along with this, we want to show our appreciation towards those companies that released stellar products. Our team has put a lot of effort into voting and narrowing down our winners of this past year into several categories, so we hope you enjoy it.

Congratulations to all the winners! We can't wait to see what you do next year.

Finally, to you, our loyal readers, thank you for being the heart of Android Central. Your trust, enthusiasm, and engagement inspire everything we do. We’re deeply grateful for your continued support and for making our content a part of your daily journey.

Here’s to another exciting year of exploring, learning, and growing together in the world of Android and beyond!

Happy reading, happy holidays, and a happy New Year! Stay safe, and be happy!

- Shruti Shekar, Editor-in-Chief
