Owners of Pixel phones (going back to the 6-series), a Pixel Fold or a Pixel Tablet can experience the fourth (and final) beta of Android 15 starting today. The release of the stable version is set for August 13, aka the day of the Pixel 9 series announcement (there’s a new Fold too).
Android 15 beta 2 added new features like Private Spaces, a more efficient AV1 video decoder and more. Then beta 3 finalized the APIs, so that app developers can start testing against the new additions and the deprecated features. This doesn’t leave much for beta 4.
The only notable change is that Google deprecated the PNG-based emoji font. Since Android 13, the system has supported vector emojis, but the old PNG version of the font was kept around for compatibility reasons. This way, app developers had plenty of time to move over to the new vector format.
Apps targeting Android 15 can now be made available on the Google Play Store, so any users who install the beta OS can download the new versions. Or you might as well wait a couple more weeks for the stable release.
Here is the list of supported devices:
Of course, each manufacturer will be announcing its own Android 15 rollout plans. For example, Samsung is already testing One UI 7.0 internally, OnePlus released beta 2 for the OnePlus 12 and Open, Honor is testing on the Magic6 Pro and Magic V2.
