Google confirms that the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro will not receive Android 17 QPR2. As Android 17 QPR2 beta begins, Google indicates that these devices reach End of Life before the December QPR2 release. Both outlets report that the phone models are not included in the Android 17 QPR2 Beta 1 program. The updates timeline described by the sources ties device support status to the QPR2 release cycle: while other supported Pixels participate in the beta, Pixel 6 and 6 Pro are excluded and therefore do not receive that quarter’s platform updates. The reports present the decision as part of Google’s ongoing device support policy, with Pixel 6 and 6 Pro considered past their supported software window relative to the QPR2 schedule. As a result, owners of these models will not get the Android 17 QPR2 update that begins beta testing and is slated for release later in December.
