The Android 15 update is here, but most of you probably won't get it
Following the announcement of a bunch of new features coming to Android, Google has also announced that they will have started to roll out the Android 15 update. However, before you get too excited, this update will make its way to Google's Pixel handset lineup first before it makes its way to other brands.
This is because other brands will need to take the AOSP update, make their own modifications, test it out, and then release it. Depending on your handset manufacturer, this could take as little as a month, or sometimes as long as an entire year. It will also vary from model to model, where the latest flagship models will probably be the first in line.
Google's release of Android 15 after the launch of the Pixel 9 series is a first. Usually Google releases their new Pixel phones with the latest version of Android preinstalled, but this time they opted not to do it. This is because the company decided to announce the new Pixel 9 phones earlier than the previous year.
This meant that the phones would be released ahead of Android 15's development schedule. Either way, thankfully it's not a particularly long wait. So if you own an eligible Pixel handset, do keep an eye out for the update that should be rolling out to your device over the next few weeks.
