For months we have been testing Android 15 QPR2, knowing that it would release in March as a major quarterly update. It has dropped today as the March Pixel update, and it also happens to be the March Pixel Feature Drop with at least a dozen new features for Pixel owners to take advantage of.
This new March update for Google’s Pixel line-up will begin hitting devices starting today and could then take a week to finish rollout depending on carrier and device. We always hope these things ship immediately, but there really are carrier hang-ups from time-to-time that slow things down.
As for which devices are receiving the March Pixel update, the full list includes the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, Pixel 6a, Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, Pixel 7a, Pixel 8 and 8 Pro, Pixel 8a, Pixel Fold, and Pixel Tablet. The newest members of the family, the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold are all included as well. I’d imagine we will be adding the Pixel 9a to the list before long.
Here are the builds for your specific Pixel model:
