Despite the hype around Android 17 Beta 1’s arrival, Google has backtracked on the beta release, citing some last-minute changes. However, that doesn’t mean that the Android 17 update isn’t coming after all.

In fact, Google has clarified that the new beta version is “coming soon.” With the beta right around the corner, platform stability expected in March, and the stable version coming out in or around June 2026, you might want to know whether your Pixel phone supports Android 17.

Full list of supported Pixel devices

Below is the list of all Pixel phones that support the Android 17 Beta 1 update and, therefore, the stable version.

Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro, Pixel 6a
Pixel 7, Pixel 7 Pro, Pixel 7a
Pixel Tablet
Pixel Fold
Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro, Pixel 8a
Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, Pixel 9 Pro Fold, Pixel 9a
Pixel 10, Pixel 10 Pro, Pixel 10 Pro XL, Pixel 10 Pro Fold, Pixel 10a (upcoming)

At launch, the Android 17 Beta 1 should be available to test on 22 devices (including the upcoming Google Pixel 10a).

It’s worth mentioning that this will be the last operating system update for the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro, as the five-year support window ends in October 2026.

Other Android smartphone makers could get faster updates

What’s interesting is that Google is skipping the traditional Developer Preview phase this year and jumping straight into the public beta cycle.

Instead of relying on phased preview drops, the company has been testing the early Android 17 changes in the Canary channel, which should refine APIs and core features before they reach the public beta stage.

That should result in more polished beta releases for Pixel users and earlier access to stabilized code for partners and brands like Samsung, OnePlus, and Xiaomi.

In other words, Android-based smartphone manufacturers can start their own beta programs sooner, narrowing the gap between Android 17’s Pixel rollout and its wider availability across third-party devices.

Xiaomi 17T Pro review: Not quite Ultra, but I didn’t want to put it down

Xiaomi is luring me back with Leica charm and battery madness... again

Xiaomi 17T Pro features an all-metal body

Xiaomi started off with a reputation as a very enthusiastic Apple “admirer”. But over the years, the company has built a strong identity of its own. One that doesn’t compromise on value, still stays competitive on pricing, and often manages to sneak genuinely flagship-grade hardware into phones that sit just below the most expensive Ultra models. And in recent years, I’ve come to appreciate a lot of Xiaomi’s products, especially its smartphones.

So when I got my hands on the Xiaomi 17T Pro, I kind of knew what to expect. A sleek design, a solid AMOLED display, and a great photography experience thanks to Leica tuning. For around $1,000 (€899), it isn’t exactly an impulse buy thanks to the ongoing price hikes. But Xiaomi has worked on offering a rounded experience that fits neatly below its true flagship, the Xiaomi 17 Ultra.

Apple just raised the price of its products by hundreds of dollars

Apple shielded customers from memory costs longer than anyone. But the inevitable has happened.

For months, the memory crisis was everyone else’s problem, but it didn't affect Apple. While smartphone and laptop makers quickly gave in, raising prices across their entry-level and flagship products, Apple stood strong, absorbing costs through long-term supplier deals that gave it leverage most brands simply didn’t have.

The situation, I fear, has gotten worse. Earlier today, the Cupertino giant revised the prices for multiple products, including the MacBooks, iPads, and Mac Studio.

I checked the Prime Day budget phone deals, and these two are the ones worth buying

Google is the smarter long-term pick, while Motorola is the ultra-cheap phone deal for basic everyday use.

Electronics, Phone, Mobile Phone

Budget phone deals can be some of the worst Prime Day traps because the low price does a lot of emotional damage to common sense. A cheap phone still needs enough storage, decent battery life, a usable camera, and enough performance to avoid becoming drawer clutter by Halloween. These two deals make sense for different reasons: the Pixel 10a is the better all-around Android buy, while the Moto G Play is the cheapest phone here that still has a clear job.
