> Early Android lacked the bounce

Early android had some visual feedback (a gradient that faded out) instead of the bounce, possibly because Apple owns a patent ( https://patents.google.com/patent/US7469381B2/en ).

Current Android still does not use the bounce, and instead stretches the content, which works well enough on the high resolution screens that we have now.

Initial Android had scroll bars with no overshoot specific indication.
