For all the great reasons there exist to own a Pixel phone, for a certain type of Android user, there\u2019s none better than being first in line to try out Android\u2019s latest changes. We\u2019re still waiting on Android 17 itself to have its stable release, with Android 17 Beta 4 only just arriving last week, and now Google\u2019s already giving us a preview of what\u2019s coming after that, with Android 17 QPR1 Beta 1.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

Right now, the main Android 17 branch is being fined-tune for its public release, so when it comes to anything big like new features being added, we\u2019ve got to look forward to its first major update, already being prepared for release sometime this September. And ahead of that landing, this one\u2019s going to go through a testing period of its own \u2014 a process that gets started with QPR1 Beta 1.<\/p>\n

Eligibility is the same as it was for Android 17 Beta testing, and you can use any Pixel device from the Pixel 6 series on up to the latest Pixel 10a to participate. If you\u2019re looking to get started, the easiest way is to simply register your device with Google\u2019s beta enrollment.<\/p>\n

On the flip side, if you\u2019ve been testing Android 17 and would rather just move back to the stable track when that goes public in a couple months, now is your opportunity to opt out of QPR1 Beta 1 and be able to return to stable without needing to wipe your device\u2019s data \u2014 so think carefully before you proceed.<\/p>\n

So far, Google\u2019s shared a brief list of fixes present in QPR1 Beta 1. We\u2019ll also be crawling through it looking for any other changes we can spot, so check back with us in the days to come for anything we find. Here\u2019s what Google\u2019s got:<\/p>\n
