Here are some awesome features which will be available to Android O users.

Picture-In-Picture
This feature allows you to keep watching your video on any screen. Just like when you are watching a youtube video you can minimize the video and go to another screen. In Android O, you'll just press the home button and the video shrinks into a movable window. The clip keeps playing while you open up Keep to write your note, or do anything else on the phone.

Notification Dots

Smart Text Selection
Selecting a phone number, email address or phrase doesn't always work perfectly, and you spend time fidgeting with the selection bars in the right place. This feature simplifies actions that require copy-pasting. The OS can now recognize which app is best for the selected string of characters you're working with. Another example included being able to highlight a phone number and pop right into the dialer.

Battery Saver

I'm tired of these stupid Android updates, they add nothing significant to phones and are simply marketing scams to make us buy new phones with latest OS. They should be releasing these updates after at least 2 years, but before android N settles we already hearing about Android O and i don't really see any significance.
For instance android 5, 6 and 7 are just so identical.

I'll advice you choose your device carefully. Mine came with lollipop, I'm currently on marshmallow, and my device is listed to get Nougat.

There is a huge improvement in terms of ram management and stability when going from 5 to 6 and to 7.
