This is the first year I haven’t followed beta updates, is there any major improvements in 14? Or is it just incremental like 13 was?

You have a more elaborate list here: https://www.androidauthority.com/android-14-features-3280726/

But I’d say battery life optimizations, being able to give an app access only to certain photos instead of all of them and App Pair. App cloning is expected too.

Looks like they took most of the best Samsung features and finally made them native. This update looks promising to me. Thanks a lot.
