Given that two out of the last three updates arrived late, we’re not too surprised that Android 13 QPR3 with the June 2023 security patch and the next Pixel Feature Drop is not yet out.
Historically, Google releases Pixel security patches on the first Monday of the month at 10 a.m. In March, Android 13 QPR2 rolled out a week late, while the Verizon variant for the Pixel 6 and 6a series took another seven days. Despite being a more minor update, the same thing happened in April. Things went back to normal last month, but the delay has now returned.
As of 10:30 a.m. (PT), the stable release of Android 13 QPR3 has not been announced. We do, however, have the Android Security Bulletin—June 2023. There are 23 security issues resolved in the Android 13 June patch dated 2023-06-01 and 34 for 2023-06-05. Google warns that:
There are indications that CVE-2022-22706 may be under limited, targeted exploitation.

The vulnerability relates to ARM Mali GPUs and has a “high” severity.
It comes as the Android 13 QPR3 Beta Program was quite sporadic. Beta 1 arrived in mid-March and Beta 2 went out after only two weeks compared to the usual month-long wait. Beta 3 followed three weeks later with Beta 3.2 being the last release in mid-May.
Android 14 might have played a role given the close release cadence, while another factor might be how the Pixel Tablet and Fold are launching with Android 13 QPR3.
Can't say I'm surprised.

If it means patching bugs before it's released, I'm OK with it
They are waiting for Apple to allow them to release.
Feature drop?
Latest March feature drop brought to pixel 7 devices stunning new features.
This...
"March Feature Drop
On the Pixel 7 series, two eSIMs can be used for Dual SIM Dual Standby, and there’s also support for T-Mobile 3CA, as well as 5G for the Pixel 6a and 7/Pro in India."
And as I remember, also this small change: "Google has also replaced the battery percentage in Quick Settings with a remaining day/hour or “Until hh:mm” estimate."
Wow, I was speechless with the big amazing list of new features dropped to our Pixel 7 devices.
Now, 3 month later, new Pixel devices feature drop, and looking to latest betas, I'm able to say, Google should do a small change, and change the name from Feature Drop to Drop Feature, because, one of the new feature that arrived in March, maybe will be removed, because it was already removed on beta.
The return of the battery percentage in quick settings.
Let's see what Google bring to us!

Hello,
Last time we have new leaks about release date.
We have poster that suggested 5 may in China .
Some people think that can be with Avengers premiere on 27 April.
In last week we had leak about 18 May.
What we know for sure that 22nd April at 00:00 start ''Notify me'' on Amazon India.
And 2nd May start '' Lab'' program.
When do you expect premiere?
I doubt about 18 May. In my opinion it's too long for Oneplus to keep this Hype in media one month longer so I except it sonner. On the beginning of May.
We had premiere Honor 10 and Huawei P20 Pro. LG preparing G7. I think these are strong competitors for oneplus 6.
So they don't should wait so long with release.
P. S. I expect that Oneplus 6 will be phone of the year. High top hardware with very good optimized Android and things that was lack in 5t: water resistance, wireless charging, better camera.
To perfection I need only OIS but I doubt in it. Maybe in 6t.
Interesting thing is price. But Honor 10 is strong competitor with very good hardware and great price.
6 May imo
May 18th?

I got the New Pixel 3a yesterday.Is a great phone but Bring to my attention still in March security patch,this is supposed to get the updates quickly right like all Pixels? I'm confused about Google put this phone in the side regarding updates and not as fast and the regulas Pixels

the phone literally just came out. they have been sitting around in a warehouse for a few months. so it will prob not see an update this month, but we should see next months and everyone after that. not really a huge deal, so calm down.

March is the latest on Google APIs for Android page for these new devices. Looks like Google hasn't gotten any update ready for publishing yet. I've owned 8 Nexus devices and none received updates immediately; however, Google would publish them with APIs within a week of release so keep checking that site if you don't get a notification on your phone.
Just read this: "Google has confirmed to 9to5Google that the Pixel 3a will be getting an update to combine the April, May, and June security patches together on June 3rd. "
Pixel 3a security patches and Android Beta Program
I owned the Pixel 3 (sold it to a friend) and received security patch updates the day of release. I too am disappointed about not getting a security patch until June. Also, the 3a cannot be enrolled in the Android Beta Program until June as well. Sure it's not a big deal, but frankly I purchased the less expensive version expecting the same treatment as the Pixel 3. I would have passed on the phone for now had I known that.

It's only a few weeks. What's the big issue? You would have passed because the security update was 2-3 weeks away?

Agreed. I understand the premise of questioning the installed software, one of the promises with these devices is after all always being up to date. On the other hand they had to lock in the firmware when they went into production and will be fully updating the phone within weeks of it's release. That's about as good as can reasonably be expected.
I was surprised the phone shipped with the March update with no immediate updates but I'm okay with that. Not a deal breaker for me.

We'll be on the same page as everyone when June comes out.
Strange that they started rolling out One UI 2.5 for the note 9 but didn't for the S9 lineup as there were some articles about.
I just received the october patch update for my S9+ and I'm still on 2.1.
This means we may get it separately or may not get it at all this month.
I received the One UI 2.5 Update Yesterday, with the October Patch. S9+, Germany.
I wonder if whoever got the october update without it will get a separate patch or we'll have to wait until the November update.
November update and no One UI 2.5 yet in SM-96500.
One UI 2.5 installed about a week ago on my T-Mobile S9+. Nov security patch just about 1 hr ago.
https://twitter.com/i/web/status/1498297242398117893
Until then a flagship 9 series sits on a Nov security patch. Oxygen Os coming
They seriously think leaving everyone on November security update is going to be acceptable? They are really shooting themselves in the foot if they're going to force people to wait close to a year with no new update.
We will get some type of A12 Oxygen operating system and mainly 3-4 security patches before A13 comes.
This literally made my day.
Thanks for sharing the news!

OxygenOS 12 Skin: OnePlus Confirms the device list for Android 12
OnePlus already released Beta program of Android 13 for OnePlus 10 Pro users. But stil some OnePlus user waiting for Android 12 based OxygenOS 12 update. Last year, OnePlus launched Android 12-based OxygenOS 12 skin in the global market. If you own a OnePlus smartphone, you probably bought it...

I couldn't find any categories for Schok so I'm posting here. Feel free to move if needed. I saw this phone which was launched a couple weeks ago and is labeled the" 2022 edition".
Schok Freedom Turbo XL - Schok Gear
The most advanced flip phone in its class. The Schok classic is made for consumers who enjoy life without complications.
www.schokgear.com
It comes with Jan 2022 security update on the phone out of the box. Does anyone know if Schok ever updates their phones with security updates? What about Android updates? I don't care about 5g, but the phone comes with Android 10 which I think is a little outdated for a new phone in 2022. If not is there a way of updating these ourselves both for security updates and Android OS?
