Android 16 has just arrived, hot on the heels of the iOS 26 beta. Google is going all in on stealing Apple’s thunder as well, introducing some new updates that directly correlate to iOS features.
While Google has historically released new Android versions between August and September, the tech giant confirmed last month that it would have an earlier June debut this year. That day has now come, with Android 16 landing on select Google Pixel models on Wednesday. Other Android devices will need to wait a bit longer, with Google planning to roll out the update more broadly over the next few months.
