Programmers, night owls and dark lords have been asking for a system-wide dark theme on Android since forever, and it seems Google has finally listened.
Android Q, which is currently in the very early stages, has a built-in dark theme -- and several other interesting new features -- according to XDA Developers.

Once enabled, it turns all the menus in Android to a pleasant white-text-on-dark-grey-surface color scheme.
This includes Settings, Launcher, Files, the volume panel and third-party notifications (note that some of Google's apps, such as YouTube, already have a dark theme). There also seems to be an option that appears to enable dark mode for apps that don't have this option, turning pretty much everything dark (even Facebook, though that particular app does not respond too well to this and looks wonky in certain places).
Some Android makers have their own version of this -- for example, Huawei's Mate 20 pro has a similar feature, and I love it. And even if you don't care about the visuals, note that dark mode saves your battery, as it takes a lot less light to show dark grey than white on an LCD screen.
Other new features spotted in Android Q include restricting certain permissions, such as location, to work only when the app is in use, as well as a desktop mode, perhaps similar to Samsung's DeX.
Android Q is still in its early stages and it's quite possible that some (or all) of these features won't make it to the final version, but I'll keep my fingers crossed that they do.
