Google was released today the Android Q Beta 1. Those of you interested can download it from the address google.com / android / beta.
The first beta includes a preview SDK for developers with system images for Pixel, Pixel XL, Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3, Pixel 3 XL as well as the official Android Emulator.
This is the fourth year that Google has released the first beta of the next version of Android in March. Android N (later called Android Nougat), Android O (Android Oreo) and Android P (Android Pie).
Over the past two years, Google is not using it Android Beta Program, which allows you to get new versions of Android instantly via updates but only on selected devices.
This is changing with Android Q. Google makes the first preview available as a beta, not as a preview version for developers only.
This means that those of you who have the above devices and want to try the beta, can do it, just like developers.
As the company is used to, this preview version will be reported and released as Android Q until a name begins with the letter Q.
