Android 16 will be released in the second quarter of 2025
By ForGeeks Google has officially confirmed that the release of Android 16 will take place in the second quarter of 2025 – between April and June. The move will better synchronize the launch of Android with the release of new devices in the ecosystem. If Google manages to release Android 16 before the end of June, the new Pixel 10 series and Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices, which are scheduled to be unveiled in July, could come out right away with Android 16.
Android 16 will be available in the same timeframe.
In addition, Google said that there will be a second release of Android in the second half of 2025 (October to December), which will be a minor update focused on bug fixes, optimizations, and new features released after the main release. This update will likely be called Android 16.1 and will support the development of the Android 16-based ecosystem.
