- Some Google Pixel users are receiving a system update to Android 12 instead of Android 13.
- This comes right after Google officially released its latest OS version to supported Pixels.
- It’s unclear why some users aren’t receiving prompts to upgrade to Android 13 instead.
After a long wait, Google Pixel users can finally get a taste of stable Android 13 running on their devices. But not everyone is receiving the update on launch day. According to several Pixel owners online, they’re receiving a prompt to upgrade to Android 12 instead of Android 13.
We noticed this bizarre issue ourselves while running three Pixel models. While the Pixel 5 received its update flawlessly around release time, we’ve had struggles with the Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 6a.
