Android 9.0 Pie – which devices will receive the update?

Like every year, Google offers the new version of its operating system. Now users of some smartphones and tablets can now install Android 9.0 Pie and get a first impression. Is it possible to install Android Pie on your device? Here is the answer.

Android Pie, official since August 2018

He’s already here. Android Pie became official in August to the delight of many. For others, the arrival of this new version only increases the problem of fragmentation of Android versions. Just over 15% of users have Android Oreo and almost 35% have a lower version than Marshmallow. We hope that Android One and Android Go will help you solve this problem.

Which devices can I install Android Pie on?

In our tables, you will find the answer. Some devices have already received the update, others do not, but they are expected to do so, in some cases the manufacturer has not issued a statement… different ways of doing.

Currently, this new version of Android can only be installed on 4 devices. All of Google, of course. This tradition dates back to the times of the Nexus when the devices had the reputation of being for developers and, therefore, the most suitable for testing new versions.
