Rumors have not been confirmed: Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro will only receive 3 major Android updates

Prior to the launch of the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro , there were rumors online that Google would increase support for the new smartphones to 4 years, but it looks like that's not the case.

What is known

According to the manufacturer's official website , the devices will receive major system updates up to and including 2024. In other words, we're talking about three years of support. Out of the box Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro run on Android 12. Hence, the new products will definitely update to Android 13, Android 14 and Android 15.
