MOUNTAIN VIEW, CA—Google I/O 2018 has officially kicked off, and with it comes more details on the latest version of Android. While Android P, as the next major update is still known for now, has a long way to go until its final release—Google still has three more developer previews planned, with a final consumer build scheduled for Q3 2018—a public beta is out today for those who want to try the software for themselves. The usual caveats with installing unfinished software still apply.
Notably, Google has made the beta available on devices beyond the company's own Pixel smartphones. Google says those who own the Essential Phone, Nokia 7 Plus, Sony Xperia XZ2, Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S, Vivo X21, Oppo R15 Pro, and the OnePlus 6 (when it comes out) can access the early build alongside those with a Pixel or Pixel 2 phone. Google is crediting its Project Treble initiative for making this expansion possible.
