Google has officially released Android 14, and the company’s own handsets were the first to run the software.
However, the Pixel 8 and Pixel 8 Pro smartphones are far from alone in receiving the upgrade, with many other phone and tablet manufacturers following suit.
While Android 14 is being released, Google is already hard at work on the next big update: Android 15. The Developer Preview is expected to be available to the first developers in February 2024. The first beta is anticipated to begin in April 2024, with all interested parties with a suitable smartphone allowed to participate.
