The Pixel 4’s last guaranteed software update was in October 2022, but there’s an official release that brings the December 2022 patches and Android 13 QPR1! The only catch? It’s a developer build: the Privacy Sandbox on Android Developer Preview 7.
(You can tell it’s QPR1-based and not just cherry-picked security patches because the new settings/changes in QPR1 are there, like the Bluetooth LE audio toggle in Developer Options or the “show media on lock screen” toggle, etc.)
The Privacy Sandbox on Android Developer Preview/Beta isn’t available for the Pixel 4 XL, just the Pixel 4. Still, it’s interesting to see an updated build for the Pixel 4, especially one that is based on the latest stable QPR release!
