Although Google hasn't officially provided any specific date for the next Android OS update release, we can expect it to be launched simultaneously with the Google Pixel 9 series of phones. Usually, Android's incremental OS update is available in Pixel smartphones after the second quarter. However, over the past couple of years, Google has released incremental OS updates in September or October.

If the Google Pixel 9 series is launched in the third quarter with Android 15, and our predictions are accurate, we expect all the latest Pixel smartphones to receive the update after the launch.

Below, we have listed all the Google Pixel phones confirmed to get the Android 15 update:

  • Pixel 6
  • Pixel 6 Pro
  • Pixel 6a
  • Pixel 7
  • Pixel 7 Pro
  • Pixel 7a
  • Pixel Fold
  • Pixel Tablet
  • Pixel 8
  • Pixel 8 Pro

The Android 15 Developer Preview 1 update for all the abovementioned phones has been available since mid-February 2024. But you might be confused about whether to download it or wait for the stable release; we recommend the latter.

As the name suggests, this Developer Preview update is intended for developers and designed for developers to test all the apps and usual settings. Therefore, you might encounter bugs or random app crashes that can ruin your smartphone experience or cause data loss.

Hence, you can now avoid installing the Developer Preview beta update. But, if you have a spare Google Pixel phone and your device is eligible for the update, you can try installing the Android 15 Google Developer Preview 1 update.
