January 2025 Android Security Update Available for Google Pixel Devices

The first update for Google’s line-up of Pixel devices has arrived for 2025, with builds for all still-supported Pixels from the Pixel 6 up through the newly launched Pixel 9 series. The update is expected to be mostly minor with bug fixes, as December was the launch of a Pixel Feature Drop with new goodies and plenty of squashed issues. For January’s Pixel update, we aren’t likely to see any major changes.
As for which devices are getting the January Pixel update, it should be like the past several updates, barring some surprise from Google ( like the expansion of updates for the Pixel 6, Pixel 7, and Fold ). The full list includes the Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, Pixel 6a, Pixel 7 and 7 Pro, Pixel 7a, Pixel 8 and 8 Pro, Pixel 8a, Pixel Fold, and Pixel Tablet. The newest members of the family, the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold are all included as well.
