Your Pixel 7 will continue getting OS updates until 2027, while your Pixel 6 will get the latest versions of Android until 2026.
If you own a Pixel 6, Pixel 7, or Pixel Fold, your device is now set for two extra years of Android OS upgrades.
These older Pixel models will now get 5 years’ worth of updates, counted from when the device first became available on the Google Store in the US, two years more than initially planned. This means that the Pixel 6, released in 2021, will continue getting OS updates until 2026. Meanwhile, the Pixel 7 released in 2022, will continue getting updates until 2027. The Pixel Fold, released in 2023, will keep getting Android updates until 2028.
Though the latest announcement may be welcome news for some, users of older Pixel smartphones still fall dramatically behind users of newer Pixel phones when it comes to the lifespan of their software support.
