If you were paying attention to yesterday's Made By Google event, and the launch of the Pixel 9 series, you might have noticed that Android barely got a mention. The Android section of the presentation ended up being dominated by Gemini news, and there was zero information about Android 15 — or more specifically when the upgrade will leave beta.
Normally, new Pixel flagships launch running the next version of Android out of the box, but we had heard rumors that this may not be the case with the Pixel 9. As skeptical as we were, it turns out those rumors were completely true — and Google specs confirm the Pixel 9 will launch running Android 14.
