Ranking the best Android versions

There have been 18 (not including Android 12) major versions of Android. Which ones would you consider to be the best?

Personally, I think ICS, Oreo, and Pie are the top 3, while Honeycomb and Lollipop are at the bottom.

​

EDIT: I should clarify, I don't necessarily mean which one is the best in terms of features. That would obviously just be a chronological list. More about which ones were most important to the platform....

Android's ideology has always been: be together, not the same. We should celebrate diversity and choice. Android was never about having the best of the best, but having what you needed with what you could afford.

Lately, I've noticed there has been so much tribalism. There's always someone out there ready to put someone else down because of their choice in phone. I'm getting so tired of the constant:

*"iPhone, oh welcome to your expensive walled garden. I would never be so stupid to pay $1000 for a phone."*

*"OnePlus is from Oppo. That's from China. It's shit."*

*"Google has really bad support. Avoid like the plague."*

*"The amount of pre-installed and un-installable apps on Samsung makes me want to ...

Am I the only one who prefers curved displays?

I prefer curved displays over flat ones. I think curved displays look more premium and I personally never had accidental touch issues with them so for me the trend of flat display coming back is not good cause now you will have to spend more on a pro or ultra phone just to get that curved display....

RoG 5 is massive disappointment

The phone bends and cracks even more easily than the iPhone 6 plus. It has a vapor chamber smaller than any previous RoG device, and in fact smaller than any gaming phone on the market. They've also taken away the vent from the back that allowed heat to escape (I guess because some YouTube reviewers with no highschool diploma declared themselves engineers and told everyone the vent was a gimmick).

Why couldn't they just take the RoG 3 and replace the chip with an 888?...

Google should advertise Nearby Share more

iPhones' AirDrop aren't an advantage over Android anymore since Nearby Share was released but from my experience, most of my friends don't even know what Nearby Share is.

There have been alot of situations where I asked someone to send me data and vice versa and they ask "Shareit?" and while Shareit works fine, it's incredibly slow. I always say "I prefer Nearby Share" and then they ask "What is that?" then I tell them about the feature and how to turn it on.

I really appreciate Nearby Share,...
