Samsung is rolling out a One UI 9 beta built on Android 17, with the first wave slated for the Galaxy S26 series later this week. The update promises expanded personalisation, stronger accessibility, new creative tools, and tighter security features across eligible devices, though early access is expected to be limited and staggered rather than universal.
Google has begun rolling out the May 2026 Android 16 patch to Pixel devices, build CP1A.260505.005. The update targets real-world annoyances including wireless charging slowdowns, camera freezes, display flickering, and keyboard misalignment. While it’s a fixes-first release, Pixel 10 users should pay attention because a bootloader change may stop them from rolling back to older builds.
