Indeed Google is hard at work with the development of its next major OS, Android 16, while it keeps on testing the newest build; a final beta version, Android 16 Beta 4 has finally arrived for the Pixel smartphones, also with that, the build enters the final stage of platform stability.
More specifically, with Android 16 Beta 4, Google is all set to add various finishing touches to its upcoming OS. At the same time, the company has further confirmed that Android 16 Beta is now available to test on more smartphones, tablets, and foldables from other Android partners.
Meanwhile, the newest beta update; however, doesn’t list any major features or changes, rather it significantly brings various features and behavioral changes within accessibility, camera, connectivity, core functionality, Graphics, health and fitness, media, performance and battery, privacy, security, and lastly, user experience and system UI.
Additionally, the update further adds a few relevant fixes that will eventually offer smooth functionality to the beta testers.
Hopefully, Samsung’s One UI 8 doesn’t miss its correct launch track, amidst Android 16’s progress
Since Google is rapidly moving with the work for its newer Android 16 OS and even already mentioned that this time, the latest Android OS is looking impressive and is on the right track of June 2025’s launch target, on the comparison side, reports suggest that Samsung has also started working on One UI 8 which is eventually going to be based on Android 16.
Hopefully, Samsung frees itself from the One UI 7 saga and be quicker to bring One UI 8 on time, anyways.
