Don't know... would be cooool

Waiting for same

Dear god I just hope they fix when the gesture navigation goes haywire.

Normally Google likes to release DP's on Wednesdays. Tomorrow would be a prime candidate, but With Google, no one knows.

its either this week or next and dp4 should be end of month if not early next month,

It's out.

Still No Oct. Update.

It's the 11th and I still haven't received the October update. My mothers 2XL got it a week ago and she lives with me and is on my service plan. I've had my 2XL since November 2017 and have always got the new update each month on or before the 5th -- I got the September update in August. I know it will eventually come but I'm just curious if others have still yet to get it or if you have had an update take this long to come before?

Same here... I know I can always sideload it, but I shouldn't have to.
OAN: My Essential phone got it 2hrs after it was announced.
If you are enrolled in the beta program, get unenrolled

Oh, I wasn't aware this would cause an issue. Thanks for the heads up. I've been enrolled since it opened last spring.
Not enrolled in beta and still no update on T-Mobile USA.

This seems to happen every month. TMobile users seem to not get the update right away.
Update: opting out of the beta worked. Weird.

Once the official release comes out, you shouldn't be in the beta anymore. I was in beta since the begining and I got the September release on time. Still haven't gotten the October one though.

I got the September at the end of August. I still had to leave the beta program and as soon as I did I got the October update.

I find that really odd. As far as I have seen, once you sign up for the beta and the official release comes out, theres no beta program to be in anymore. I was on the Oreo beta and this is what happened. And once the Pie beta ended with the release, my phone no longer said Im on beta. You cant even sign up for beta anymore because theres no beta to be in at this point. So, I cant even see how I can opt out of something Im not on anymore in order to get the OTA update. FWIW, I got the September update on the 3rd...but then again I hit the update button every day regardless.
FWIW, I just finished setting up my 3XL last night, and that still doesnt have the Oct update, nor did it find it when I requested it.

November update

Gang,
Did anyone received the November update already ?
TIA
Nope
AFAIK it's not even available: https://source.android.com/security/bulletin/pixel/
I just see the October update and earlier
Relax
August Update came on 6th August,
May Update came on the 7th May..
Give it a bit time. Hopefully this one packs a bomb of Pixel 3 Stuff.

It's not a theory, that is how Google releases updates
But the Now playing server side changes for Pixel 2(XL) / Pixel (XL) is out now.
Check settings - sounds - Now playing. There is the now playing history. At least it is something

Pixel & Pixel XL patches now released at end of the month?

Has anyone else noticed how updates for both the Pixel & Pixel XL are not bring released until the end of the month?
November's factory & OTA images weren't available until the end of the month when all other devices we're at the beginning. Now December's aren't available too when all other devices are.
It's pretty much expected, if they have worked on November's update till the end of month.

Because we are old now.
I don't see any problems with it. It will be delivered. Yes, it was some problems with November patch so it was delivered late, so it may be the reason December will be a bit late this time. What is promising - Nexus 6 still receiving an update although the support ended last month. So maybe Google is committed to push more security patches than promised.
I'm more hoping for optimization and improvements, but I won't hold my breath. If that takes until the end of the month, then I will gladly wait -
Edit: Out now for my Pixel
December update is live and running. So only one day delay.
I actually got my December date a day early

Question Release date

When the release date ?
Only Google knows for sure but it looks like the phone will be announced on the 19th October and released a couple of weeks later (end October).
This is based on leaks so we don't really know.
It supposed to beat iphone 13 series so why so late
That's quite a narrow view.
Google always announce their phones around October time (the Pixel 5 was a day earlier at the end of September). They are sticking to their own schedule which is much better than reacting to the competition.
In short, they aren't late, people are just impatient
Supposedly unveil Oct 19th and pre-orders open. Devices delivered Oct 30. Really hope it is sooner or this is going to be the longest 5.5 weeks ever.

Tell me about it! I have my Pixel 5 for sale on eBay and it will get sold by end of September so maybe have to go a month with an older phone. Trying to find one as my old old old HTC 10 is properly ruined.
Mid October hopefully...
One long month to wait
Really hope that we will have a surprise and it will be unveiled on the 27th Sep.
The new chip is promising
I say this every year but I really think Google's release cycle is odd.
Announced late October likely not in the shops until November, months after the iPhone and flagship droids for the year.

It's been strange and a non effective strategy since the Nexus days!

I think it makes sense. No other big android releases during that time, also, just before holiday season. You know, a lot of people buying phones for people lol. And a few weeks before black Friday (week now), so us fanboys who can't wait go buy ours at full price, then in November drop the price so people holiday shopping have more incentive to buy one.
The pixel 6 page on the Google store says "coming October 19th." Wouldn't it be cool if that meant they will be available on that date? They did that with the 4 if I remember correctly. Not holding my breath, just a little too excited.
Google Pixel 6
All new. All Google.

My guess is pre-orders the night of the event, ships the following week.

Question Android 13 curiosity..

Does anyone think android 13 final will be released on Monday ? I thought I read something stating the July update was the last Android 12 update that the pixel 6 would see . So Im curious . Thanks

Since Google said that it was going to release Android 13 beta for the Pixel 6a soon, I doubt it, but who knows. Would be strange to release A13 Beta for the 6a a day or 2 before the release of stable A13 and even stranger to release the beta for that phone after the stable is released. But we're talking about Google here, so nothing would shock me.
Well I thought the point of beta 4.1 was to finalize the build and be the "last" before official release lol.

It is.
So wouldn't that entail a early August release for the pixel 6 and other devices that already had there rounds of the beta? The 6a hasn't even had a beta yet .. it would take another x amount of betas to get it right for the 6a . Wouldnt they just release for what they got now and worry about 6a release after ? Lol

I don't think they want to put the 6a on a different schedule than all the other Pixels, especially given all the negative pushback when they were releasing builds for the Pixel 6 series later than for all the other Pixels.
The beta they release for the 6a would likely be 4.1. They aren't going to release a special beta just for the 6a, and then release more until they get it right. All the Pixels get the same beta.
But like I said, who knows? Just wait and see what happens. None of us can control it so don't even worry about it. It happens when it happens, whether Monday, the next Monday, or whenever...
Idk everything I read which is all speculation said early August for a13... Idk
