Key features which was introduced by either Apple or Google and now it is being copied by the opposing company and other manufactures :
1. Gesture navigation: This was first introduced by Apple with iPhone X in 2017 in which you use the gestures to switch between apps. Later it was then introduced in Android 9 which was completely half baked gesture system except for OnePlus and Samsung smartphones which had way too better gesture implementation back in Android 9 now with Android 10, gesture navigation is fully baked.
