So this phone just got announced. As you can see, it's edgeless and almost has no bezels. Overall, it's gorgeous. Can't wait for Apple to steal this and claim that they bring us the future and innovation.

It's MIUI. Hopefully, the bootloader will be unlockable and ppl will be able to flash custom ROMs without a problem :)

On the topic on custom roms, I can't wait for CM14 to be fully stable and actually usable haha

Basically you edit the build.prop so your model name is listed as Pixel / XL which enables Google Assistant on your phone, even though you have a S5.

Haven't had time to play with it, but I installed a CM14 based ROM with Android N and so far so good.

Also edited my build.prop to get the Google assistant.

Have you tried the new TWRP 3? It's got a nice new skin haha
