Following the release of Android 15 QPR1 Beta 1 for Pixel devices older than the Pixel 9 series, Google is also now making Android 15 beta available for the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, and Pixel 9 Pro XL — the brand-new Google smartphones that are just now arriving to those that pre-ordered. This release will give users of these devices a chance to test the latest features before the official release.

Release notes for Android 15 Beta 4.2 (build AP31.240617.015) adding the new devices on August 22nd

At first, the new devices weren’t appearing in Google’s Android Beta for Pixel website in order to enroll them in the beta program. However, it appears that they have now begun to show up. This means that, for now, if your device isn’t showing up, you may need to be patient and just wait a bit. Otherwise, you could always manually install it by flashing the factory images, although that would take more work.

Once enrolled in the beta program, you should receive an over-the-air (OTA) update to the beta version. However, it is important to remember that beta software can be unstable and contain bugs. So, it’s recommended to back up your data before installing the beta and be prepared for potential issues.

As Android 15 moves closer to its official release, we can expect Google to continue refining the software and addressing any remaining bugs. Future beta releases will likely bring further improvements and optimizations, as well as potentially introduce new features that weren’t included in the initial beta.
