Following the release of Android 17 QPR1 Beta 3 at Google I/O a few weeks back, Google has now given its Pixel phones another update, this time to Android 17 QPR1 Beta 4.
In this new QPR1 Beta 4 update, we’re seeing 7 bug fixes, but Google hasn’t been open about any new features. They aren’t typically that open about new stuff, so we’ll try to dive in shortly and let you know if anything is fun.
As for which devices are getting this update, Google has removed the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro from the program. Both phones were previously a part of the Android 17 QPR1 beta program, so this is a bit of a surprise. The Pixel 6a is still a part, it’s just that Google ripped away the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro without notice or reason.
UPDATE: Google has explained on reddit that they are skipping the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro for this Beta 4, but will send the next beta to each – “The plan is for Pixel 6 and 6 Pro to return in the next beta of QPR1.”
