- The new Android 15 QPR2 Beta 1 is available as a Generic System Image (GSI), which means it will be coming to Pixels very soon.
- This new beta is an early test launch for features expected to land with the March 2025 Pixel Drop.
- We are still waiting on the stable launch of Android 15 QPR1, which will likely land in December.
Today, Google started rolling out the newest beta for Android 15. This is not a new beta for the general version of Android 15 — that already went stable in October. This is Android 15 QPR2 Beta 1, which is the first test build for an eventual Pixel Drop and update to the Android Open-Source Project (AOSP).
Pixel Drops (formerly known as Pixel Feature Drops) are quarterly launches of new features for Google phones, tablets, and smartwatches. QPR2 Beta 1 is the second Android 15 Pixel Drop beta testers are getting, allowing them a sneak peek at what might be included in that drop.
