System updates
When will my phone get Android 15?
Once Google has released the final version of Android 15, it is up to the manufacturers to adapt their interfaces and update their phones with the systems.
Google has in several ways worked to speed up and facilitate this process, and the manufacturers have of course been able to start their work long before the final system version is released, but it is still quite a large task for the manufacturers to update the system, especially if they are simultaneously planning to introduce new features in their mobile interface.
Google has already updated the Pixel phones that still receive updates with Android 15. For other manufacturers, we know the following:
Samsung
Samsung plans to introduce One UI 7.0 along with Android 15, but it is facing challenges. The system has probably started beta testing after delays at the time of this publication. The Samsung Galaxy S25 series is expected to be released with Android 15 in February, and around that time, the Galaxy S24 series will likely be updated, while other Samsung phones will receive the update gradually after that.
Sony
Sony has recently updated Xperia 1 VI to Android 15. The company has not provided a timeline for when other mobile phones can be updated, but we can expect the update to be rolled out gradually.
Xiaomi
Xiaomi has launched its latest flagship model, Xiaomi 15, in China with Android 15 and its interface Hyper OS 2.0. Xiaomi 14 has also started receiving Android 15, but still with Hyper OS 1.1, while Hyper OS 2.0 is being beta tested for the previous flagship model. We can probably expect more models to receive Android 15 around the turn of the year.
