Pixel Phones Could Start Rolling Out Android 10

From the last few days, we all were engulfed by the launching buzz of Android 10 previously aka Android Q.

Today is the day when Google is bursting the balloon of Android 10. 

As we all know Google has recently announced that the next version of the Android mobile operating system is named Android 10, dropping the dessert names from now on.

Now, Google is expected to release Android 10 on 03 September, according to a carrier support page spotted by 9to5Google.

Google could begin the rolling out of Android 10 to all the Pixel phones starting from the first generation Pixel to the latest Pixel 3a on 03 September.

Recently, Canadian carrier Telus revealed the launch date of Android 10 by 3rd September, earlier another Canadian network carrier Rogers also revealed the same launch date.

According to a page posted by Canadian carrier Rogers Communications, 9to5Google reported that the new operating system is scheduled to roll out to all Pixel phones.

The Rogers support page listed the launch date of “Q OS” for the Google Pixel, Pixel XL, Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3, Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL.

The mention of the update has since been removed from the support page, but a support page at Canadian carrier Telus jumped the gun and took the details of lists Tuesday as the release of “Android Q.”

Android 10 will be shipped with the forthcoming Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL devices that will be launched in October unless Google breaks tradition just like it did by discontinuing the naming of Android versions.

The final preview for developers and beta tester of Android 10 was released at the start of this month with Q Beta 6.

Hopefully, Google found the time to add more polish and fix bugs in the intervening period before the public launch.
