Google to roll out Android 15 to Pixels in October
The Pixel 9 family launched a couple of weeks ago with Android 14 on board, and so you may have been wondering what Google's plans are about releasing Android 15. According to a new rumor today, the company will only roll out Android 15 to its Pixels in October, perhaps around the middle of that month.
That is despite the fact that Google will allegedly release the source code for Android 15 next week. Traditionally, the day of the source code drop was also the day the rollout began for Pixels, but that's been changing recently, with the Pixel team regularly withholding updates until they're fully ready.
This gives it more time to finalize marketing for Pixel Drops, test changes, and iron out last-minute bugs. Last year, the Pixel release was delayed too compared to the initial timeline, and it seems like it's going to happen again, for the same reason.
The same source claims that the Android 15 update for pixels is being withheld to improve its stability. Hopefully there's enough time between now and mid-October to make that a reality.
