Here Is the Release Schedule for Android 11

At present, many Android OS-based smartphone vendors have begun releasing updates to the Android 10 system for the smartphones they release.

This happens because Google already requires that Android smartphones released in 2020 must already be using Android 10, so smartphones released the previous year also begin to get an upgrade to Android 10 gradually.

As we know, if now Google has prepared the next version of Android, which is Android 11, which was first announced on February 19 2020.

If we see pictures from the timeline of the release schedule for Android 11 above, there are several release paths from Android 11 that are released in stages, Developer Preview 2 on March 18, 2020, Developer Preview 3 on April 23, 2020, and the last preview on May 6, 2020.

Then, this month (June 2020), the first Beta for Android 11 will be released for Google’s device, the Google Pixel series. This Google release smartphone will get the most recent Android 11 beta update on June 10, 2020, for the list of devices available from Google Pixels 2, 3, 3a, and 4.

Of course, in this latest version, there will be a lot of new features that we can meet, but since this is still in beta, we will always encounter a variety of bugs.

Just for information, a bug in the beta test stage is usual, so if you don’t want to try the beta test, it’s a personal decision for each user.
