Within a few weeks, We are waiting for the arrival of Android 15 and iOS 18two operating systems that dominate the smartphone market, the most used type of device in the world. Not for nothing, as we have told you on occasion, Google’s operating system is the most used, above Windows, while iOS is also well above macOS, in the clearest indicator that we really live in a post-PC era.

For some time now, we have become accustomed to the official announcement of a new version of Android taking place in May (at Google I/O) and its launch in October, since in the case of iOS the announcement took place already in June (at WWDC) and that its it will be available to users in September. And so we thought it would be this year with Android 15 and iOS 18, until last July when we learned that Google was pushing the introduction of the Pixel 9 family to August.

Of course, this immediately made us all think that the launch of Android 15 also it would be two months earlier than we thoughtbecause it made sense to imagine that Google would want to repeat what was seen in previous generations, that is, that its operating system would debut with its own devices, although later its jump to smartphones from other manufacturers would not be long in coming. also transfer to own devices.

Finally, however, the Pixel 9 arrived with Android 14, the (still) current generation of the operating system, so at that point the rumors started again, in this case with two big questions: why Android 15 didn’t launch with the Pixel 9, and then when the new version would arrive operating system. And while it was easier to imagine, its debut would be on Google mobile phones first.

Well, as we read in Android Police, we already have the answers, and that’s it Android 15 will debut in October, and it will initially be on the Pixel 9. This ends some rumors that pointed to September, and the reason for this would be the most predictable and conceivable in the world on the other hand, which is that there is still work to be done on the operating system and Google refuses to send it to them if it still does not offer stability , which he should have.
