Specs
Question Ranking
Pros
Pro Extra launchers
Comes with a taskbar launcher and the Pixel launcher.
Pro Rooted with a few clicks
Similarly to android-x86, it's rooted with just a few clicks, thus allowing the use of AdAway and other Ad Blockers.
Pro Google Play Store
Google Play Store is installed by default.
Pro ARM Virtualization
Like android-x86, it comes with ARM virtualization support, so you can run many Android ARM apps on your x-86 device.
Pro Android Apps
There exist an app for any task.
Pro Simple Linux distro
Like ChromiumOS it has a very simple(stipped down) user interface that is easy to understand and use.
Pro Unique
It is unique compared to taditional GNU-based Linux distributions.
Pro Multi-platform
Android is available for PCs, Phones, Tablets, TVs and even Clocks.
Pro Familiar UI/Design
Everyone who owns an android device already know the OS.
Pro Fully opensource
It is fully opensource and there is no company behind it.
Pro Simple packaging system
Built on Alpine's APKBUILD system, which is an accessible and simple packaging system. If you're familiar with Arch's ABS or Gentoo's ebuilds, APKBUILDs are a breeze.
Pro Is pure Python 3
There is a hard and fast rule against Python 2 software in the main repositories, with efforts focused on adapting software to use Python 3 where possible.
Pro Small and performant
A standard installation takes under 200 MB. Only the bare necessities are included.
Pro Inviting and receptive development team
The people building the distro are knowledgeable and helpful when issues arise. Merge requests are actively suggested and reviewed, and the developers thank users for taking the time to learn the distro.
Cons
Con Limited hardware support
Like android-x86, it has limited hardware support.
Con Not for power users
Android is designed for everyone so it might be a bit limited for power users.
Con Not (yet) ready for Linux newbies
As of November 2018, there isn't an installer yet. If you're familiar with installing Arch or Gentoo (via chroot, fdisk, et al) then it's no big deal. An installer framework (called Horizon) is in the works.
Con Is pure Python 3
Python 2 support is not supported by the distro, so many older upstreams who haven't adapted to Python 3 yet will need their software patched to work (this is both a pro and a con).
Con Somewhat limited package set for servers
As of November 2018, it's still missing some server software. It's primarily a desktop-oriented distribution, but accepts server packages and progress has already been made on that front, including lighttpd, apache, and php-fpm. Contributors are already bringing more server software to the distro, including certbot, cgit, and Nextcloud.
