Quick answer
Google has released Android 17 QPR1 Beta 5 for Pixel devices, focusing on bug fixes and re-including Pixel 6 and 6 Pro in testing.
Google has released the fifth beta version of Android 17 QPR1 for Pixel smartphones. The update, labeled as build CP31.260608.007, now restores support for Pixel 6 and 6 Pro models, which were temporarily excluded from the previous beta release.
The primary focus of this release is on bug fixes rather than introducing new features. Users enrolled in the Android Beta program can install the update via their device settings. However, Google advises those planning to upgrade to the stable Android 17 release without data loss to skip this beta version.
Recall that the stable version of Android 17 was released earlier this month. The QPR1 beta versions are paving the way for the September Feature Drop update, which will bring new features to Pixel users.
