Google has been working hard on the new Android operating system and the Android P beta has already been available for a while on various smartphones. Not too long, it will finally be ready and we will get the final version of the Android update. As usual, unfortunately, not all devices will receive the update, but fortunately, a lot of them will. These are the smartphones of which so far they are known to receive the Android P update. More devices may be added to the list soon.
Google first
Of course, Google’s own Pixel devices will be among the very first smartphones that get Android P. It is expected that the Pixel, Pixel XL, Pixel 2 and Pixel 2 XL all get the update. Naturally, the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL will also be equipped with the new operating system when they are finally launched. We will have to wait for that, although a 3D render has already been published online. Unfortunately, it seems that Google Nexus smartphones will fish next to the net and the Pixel C does not seem to get the update.
