Even at full brightness, I'm not seeing a difference. It may be hardware related, meaning it won't show up in a screenshot.

If I recall correctly, it's not available* until the February security update arrives on your phone.
*it is technically available right now through developer settings

There most likely won't be one like the beta that just finished. 2 things to remember here:
1. Samsung doesn't usually release point updates to their phones. Meaning, the S8 was on 8.0 when it came out until 9.0 was released, whereas the last Note was on 8.1 when it came out.
2. Us S9 owners, will be second tier this November when the Q beta comes out. So, if it's anything like the P beta, the older phone (in this example, the S8) will have a smaller beta run and will start later than the newer phone's beta.
A lot of this could be avoided if Samsung would just implement project treble.

Apparently, it's built into android Q, so if you want it before this time next year, you'll probably want a 3rd party app for that.

Disregard, it popped up in the explore tab. Don't know why it wasn't there at first.

I can't seem to get access to the community forum in the new members app. Anyone have any idea why?

With the updated goodlock in the galaxy store, there is a plugin that brings back all the old, extra split screen features with some new ones as well.

I already had the assistant app downloaded and I didn't need to say "app" to get it to work. However, xda has since made an apk that allows for the opening of it too. they work about the same, but using the quick command gives you the purple toast message at the top that shows your Bixby quick command, whereas as the apk is a bit cleaner.

There's a work around for the Bixby button not being able to remap to something like Google assistant. Just make a quick command for "open assistant" and set it to the button press. Then the single press opens Google assistant. Same can be done for any app that isn't listed in the "open app" list.

Were you running a theme when you updated? Try reverting to the stock theme.

The nav bar was only transparent when you used auto hide, otherwise it was only transparent on the home screen. However, with the introduction of the gesture controls, Samsung removed the auto hide nav bar option. It was asked for in the beta program and we were told that the devs were looking into it, but it never came back. On a side note, I HATED the gesture controls at first, but I gave them some time and now that's all I use. Even after all these months, I still use the gesture hints. I like seeing exactly where I can swipe.

It's still there but in the contacts app and hidden. You have to tap the 3 line hamburger menu on the left, then tap the cog in the upper right of the slide out menu and then the options are in there.

Google... a lot of the design cues came from Google's standards for Pie and Samsung is finally playing ball with Google and design elements. As for the rationale behind the clock moving positions... notches and punch holes. Its that simple, Google switched it for the potential of your phone having notches or punch holes.

Dumb question time, but have you tried raising the volume with your phone when connected to BT devices? That always resets with a reboot.

Here's a question.. Samsung is calling this an "open beta" and I don't remember them using the term "open" last year. Also, since Pie will be rolling out in January, 2 months isn't a long time here, so do we think that this "open beta" will forgo the sign up limits like in years past?

It's been tempting to flash the alpha build But I guess I will wait for the official Samsung beta and just keep checking this app And what I forgot about and someone else mentioned is that your OTAs no longer work if you flash the Alpha. Youd have to go through the hassle of flashing the last offical build to start getting the OTAs again

This is how it will all work. There will be a leak as to what day the beta starts. The tech blogs will button mash the Samsung + app on that day and when the registration banner appears, they'll blog. It'll blaze through the interwebz like wild fire and folks will flood here, the servers will start lagging and crashing and by the end of the day, a few thousand will have gotten in and the rest will cry that they didn't. Then there will be months of the beta testers posting "OMG OMG OMG!!!! THIS AND THAT" stuff and being told to keep it in the beta forums. There will also be a subsection of folks who loaded the Alpha and will get very mad that they can't get on the beta because their IMEI has been flagged in Samsung's systems and are now ineligible for the beta. All just like last year....

This has been discussed before. Verizon and at&t do their own private, internal testing. I don't think a good reason other than "just because" has been given though.
