It seems likely that Android 15 will finally launch on October 15 , according to a recent report .
Google ’s tardy smartphones , thePixel 9family , hit shop about a calendar month ago now . However , in an unusual move from the company , there ’s been no preindication of an accompanying OS upgrade .
Googleinadvertently confirmedthat Android 15 would be releasing in October back in August , within the exit notes for its Android Beta expiration update . Now Android Headlinesclaimsto have discovered precisely when in that calendar month Android 15 might arrive : October 15 .
The issue points out that Google typically rolls its updates out on a Monday , which would have mean an October 14 launching . However , with that being a US holiday , the launch engagement has patently been shuffle back to October 15 .
There ’s no entropy on how the website amount upon that information , but as we ’ve discovered repeatedly , Google is n’t the tightest ship when it comes to data leaks .
An October 15 rollout day of the month for Android 15 would evidently deform out to be almost two month after Google ’s former hardware launching . There ’s a very simple-minded cause for that : Google is n’t late with its software , it was former with its hardware .
For whatever reason , the company opted to bring the launch of the Pixel 9 series forward two months from its distinctive October slot . Evidently the party ’s Android team still need that full calendar year to get Android 15 ready , so here we are .
The choice was likely simple : set up Android 15 feature - all over , or stray it out with key features still missing . The latter is essentially what Apple has done with theiPhone 16and iOS 18 , which rather awkwardly get with the very AI feature that have been used to define its launching missing .
oddly enough , the new software features that the Pixel 9 did really ship with , despite retaining Android 14 , were all AI related . It ’s a fascinating glimpse at where the precedence lie with these two rival companies .
