It seems to be the season for software updates, with Apple pushing iOS 18 to iPhone, Samsung's One UI 6.1.1 rolling out and now the advance of Android 15. Google Pixel models will be the first phones to get Android 15 and we now have a firm date for its rollout.

The Google Pixel 6 is about to get the Android 15 update, its last Android update ever. Should you consider upgrading this year or wait for the Pixel 10?

Pixel 9 exclusive Magic Editor functions Reimagine and Auto Frame could soon find their way onto Pixel 6, Pixel 7 and Pixel 8.

This new wallet-friendly phone from Infinix offers as much bang for the buck as the Pixel 8a does, and even beats it in some areas.

Of the three foldables released over the past three months, Google’s Pixel 9 Pro Fold has won my heart – but despite this discussion of synchronization between foldables and flagships, Samsung’s Z Flip 6 is still technically the budget winner, even if the foldable aspect is less useful.

One of the biggest disappointments of the Pixel 9 series was that it launched without Android 15. Launching a new Pixel with the latest version of Android has been a long-standing tradition, but it seemed as though Android 15 just wasn’t ready for prime time.

Google pushed Android 15 to AOSP in early September, but the OTA update for Pixels was nowhere to be seen. Instead, it mentioned that the stable build for Pixels and other Android devices will go live in the coming weeks.

Google quietly revealed Android 15 would be arriving in October as part of its release notes for the Android Beta Exit update – which is available to people who have been testing the OS ahead of its launch.

Get excited, Android fans: the latest version of the Android OS is slated for release on October 15.The Latest Tech News, Delivered to Your Inbox
