With Android 12 finally being released to developers, now everyone wants to know when their phone or tablet will receive the expected OS update.
As with all major Android versions, Pixel devices are the first to access the latest features. With BETA versions being released on more and more devices, there is an expectation regarding the final release of the new version of Android.

Because of this greater openness, Android 12 is available for bug reports from users themselves and quick fixes. Keeping in mind that in theory, there should be a total of four betas released before the final version.
The first updates are only valid for smartphones and tablets purchased at retail, as the devices sold by operators have profound changes and Android 12 still needs to pass through their hands, before reaching mobile phones. If your device is in this case, it’s safe to say that there is no target date for it.
Besides the date, another curiosity is about ‘what changes with the new version?’. The changes, in fact, are small, focusing on a changed look and that can have dynamic themes, along with interesting internal tweaks like more control over the notifications that reach the device.
Google Pixel
As with all Android releases, Google Pixel owners will receive Android 12 the day it is released. Barring any setbacks, we hope to see the first beta for Pixel owners arrive in May.
So, the final release is slated for sometime later this year, and according to the schedule provided by Google, Android 12 should hit everyone in September. These are the Pixel devices we hope to see get Android 12:
Pixel 3
Pixel 3 XL
Pixel 3a
Pixel 3a XL
Pixel 4
Pixel 4 XL
Pixel 4a
Pixel 4a (5G)
Pixel 5
Pixel 6
Pixel 6 Pro
Android 12 marks the end of support for the good old Pixel 2 and 2 XL, which was to be expected considering Google’s previous three-year commitment to device updates.
asus
Asus tends to update its devices for two years, a rule that reaches intermediate and high-end devices. It is very fast when delivering the update, even releasing the manual installation of the package with Android 12 (I don’t recommend this type of update). Knowing this, we are like this:
ROG Phone 5 and 5s (Second Quarter 2022)
ROG Phone 3 and Zenfone 7 (first half of 2022)
The Zenfone 8 and 8 Flip started receiving Android 12 in December 2021.
Motorola
A company that was once at the top of the list for software updates has slowly become one of the companies that has been letting its users down. Bearing in mind that Motorola is preparing to launch several new smartphones in the national market, they will probably still arrive with Android 10, contrary to our expectations.
In fact, when the company shared its plans to update devices to Android 11, it stated that many of those devices would not receive the Android 12 update.
Motorola has yet to share a timeline of when it expects to release the Android 12 update for recently released products. However, the company confirmed that the Edge+ and Moto RAZR would receive the update. Therefore, we should soon have a more concrete answer about the update schedule.

LG
Even after leaving the mobile phone market, LG is still offering support for the devices and that means updates are coming. The list of devices that should receive Android 12, based on official information and rumors, is this:
Velvet 5G
G8X
Velvet (LTE)
G8S
wing
K52
K42
V50S
V50
V60
G8
Q31

Updates should start in February 2022, always first in South Korea and then Android 12 arrives for cell phones sold outside the company’s country.
realme
Realme does a good job when it comes to system updates. The company will release Realme UI 2.0 based on Android 11 for Realme X2 Pro, as well as Realme 7 Pro in March. That said, Android 11 is no longer the only new thing on the market since Google recently announced the release of the Android 12 Developer Preview for Google Pixels.
As of last year, we expect Realme to be one of the first OEMs to offer the Android 12 update with its Realme UI 3.0 interface to its flagship smartphone for 2021. Since Realme doesn’t have a clear policy for software updates, it is It’s hard to say which devices will get the next Android 12 update. But we can build on previous updates.
