If yesterday we saw that the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL will receive a final update in early 2022, now we see how the Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL will finally receive the next version of Android next year.
Hace unos días, cuando Google actualizó el calendario de actualizaciones de Android 12L Beta, solo confirmó that the vista previa llegaría a los Pixel 6, Pixel 5a, Pixel 5, Pixel 4a 5G y Pixel 4a, dejando afuera de la lista de dispositivos elegibles a The Pixel 3a and 3a XL, but it looks like it’s either a mistake or Google has changed its mind. It is unknown because initially the Pixel 3a did not appear on the list of eligible devices.
Over the past few days, there has been a lot of dissatisfaction from Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL users, since Google had guaranteed three years that the updates, with which until May 2022 the mobile was to receive each new version of Android, and Android 12L enters this period.
This is the Android 12L Beta Calendar
When Google announced Android 12L Last week he released the “Developer Preview” version the same day, but only for the emulator of Android Studio. It won’t be until next month December when Android 12L beta 1 will reach the selected Pixels, which as we finally saw are:
- Pixel 6 Pro
- Pixel 6
- Pixel 5a with 5G
- Pixel 5
- Pixel 4a (5G)
- Pixel 4a
- Pixel 4
- Pixel 3a XL
- Pixel 3a
Then, in January, they will launch the second beta and in February the third and last beta, releasing the final version of Android 12L in the remainder of the first quarter of the year. This means that Android 12L would arrive no later than March, two months before the Pixel 3a are without official support.
Although the version of Android 12L It’s designed to squeeze the big screens of tablets and foldable devices, small improvements are also expected in cellphones, which we’ll find out next month when the first beta hits the Pixels. Maybe with Android 12L the volume control will regain its compatibility with the Chromecast.
