Google’s Android 15 update rollout timeline has reportedly been confirmed by the company. A publication has revealed details about the release window for the upcoming major Android operating system update that is expected to arrive in the coming months, with eligible Pixel phones likely to be the first to receive the update.

Android 15 update rollout timeline revealed
Android Authority spotted the release notes for the Android Beta Exit update, which is being sent to those devices that have opted out of the Android 15 beta program and do not wish to receive further test builds. The description also asks users waiting for the Android 15 update to “ignore” the OTA “until Android 15 is available in October.”
The exit update is designed to give Android 15 beta testers the ability to downgrade to the previous version, but will result in wiping the device. The release notes also give users another option: wait for the stable Android 15 release and update to that version.
Users who don’t want to wipe their smartphones can choose to wait until October, according to the release notes, when the stable version of Android 15 will be released. Google has yet to announce the exact date when Android 15 will be released.
The release notes essentially confirm Google’s release timeline for the Android 15 update. This would also mean that Pixel devices are expected to be the first to get the update in October, followed by smartphones from other brands.
Pixel devices will get the Android 15 update ahead of other smartphone brands, with the update expected to roll out to the Google Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro, Pixel 6a, Pixel 7 series, Pixel 7a, Pixel 8 series, Pixel 8a, Pixel 9 series, Pixel Fold, Pixel 9 Pro Fold, and Pixel Tablet.
Android 15 is expected to bring several upgrades and new features, including improved Passkey support, Private Space, Adaptive Timeout on Pixel phones, and more.
