Google Pixel's next update has been revealed by Verizon - here's what it says

It appears that Verizon accidentally leaked all the details of the Pixel update scheduled for November.

While leaks of cell phone updates are not uncommon, they rarely come from a major provider. However, a recent report from Android Authority reveals that Verizon appears to have released everything we can expect in its next update. First of all, it is worth noting that this post confirms that it will be released on November 11.

First, while this update does not bring any new features to Pixel phones, it has the same necessary security patches that we expect and recommend with every update. There are also general improvements to the performance and stability of certain UI transitions and animations.

However, this update seems to be primarily focused on resolving certain recently identified issues. These include Bluetooth range issues, adaptive brightness not being enabled, the camera tilting when using zoom, and white dots on the screen. None of these issues are phone-breaking, but resolving them would improve the overall user experience. [For example, a recent APK made changes to the Pixel Screenshots app. However, the biggest change coming to all Android devices will be Android 16, which is said to be released much sooner than anyone expected. Not all of the features that will be released are known, but some believe that there will be iPhone-inspired changes with a focus on multitasking.

Google phones remain some of the best Android phones you can buy, and with Black Friday approaching, there has never been a better time to grab one, so these fixes are perfectly timed.
