Android 16 is launching months earlier than usual. Google says it’s coming in Q2 of 2025, when usually major releases happen in Q3 or Q4.

Lol also maybe this is just the new normal to get people to buy phones more often again. I just bought a pixel 8a for my father in law because it was supposed to come with 7 version upgrades before being left to rot. I assumed they release a new major version each year, so the phone should last him 7 years, but maybe it’ll only be 3.5 years now?This is proven false, so 7 years of updates, not 7 versions for a pixel 8a, hooray!
You spent more time typing that out than it would have taken to actually check Google’s wording. They claim “7 years of OS updates”, you’re just spreading misinformation.

Hey, glad to hear! I bought a used pixel and did almost no research as I’m busy. So glad to be proven wrong!
