  • Android 12L is rolling out to a selection of Pixel phones today.
  • It will eventually make its way to products from Samsung, Microsoft, and Lenovo.
  • This iteration of Android 12 is optimized for larger displays.

Today, Google announced the latest Pixel feature drop. However, a bevy of new features isn’t all that’s coming to Pixels right now. Additionally, the update features the new large-screen iteration of Android 12.

Known as Android 12L, it is the first time Google’s launched a mid-cycle upgrade to Android since Android 8.1 Marshmallow. The ‘L’ moniker likely references the word ‘large,’ because this version of Android focuses on features for larger displays.
