Lusting after the upcoming Android 7.1 update, which is full of new features? It's only available on Google's Pixel phones, which themselves aren't available yet.
We've got some good news: The first major improvement of Android Nougat will be hitting Google's Nexus devices in early December.
SEE ALSO:Android 7.1 Nougat won't bring Assistant to everyoneAnd, the first developer beta for Android 7.1 will become available on the Pixel C, Nexus 5X and 6P devices "later this month," according to a post by Android engineering VP Dave Burke.
"Initially, we’ll offer the Developer Preview for Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, and Pixel C devices, extending to other supported devices by the end of the preview. At the final release of the Android 7.1.x platform, due in early December, we’ll roll out updates to the full lineup of supported devices — Nexus 6, 5X, 6P, 9, Player, Pixel C, and supported Android One devices — as well as Pixel and Pixel XL devices," wrote Burke.
As for those with Android devices that aren't made (or branded) by Google, they should be getting 7.1 "over the months ahead."
Of course, owners and Pixel phones will see a very different Android 7.1 than the rest. Some 7.1 features, such as Night Light and Daydream VR mode, will be available on all devices. On the other hand, Google's Assistant, the Pixel Camera, Smart Storage and the Pixel Launcher (among other things) will only be available on the Pixel and the Pixel XL.
