Pre-orders of the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, and Pixel 9 Pro XL should be arriving on doorsteps today. If you ended up buying one, I’m here to tell you that you can immediately take that Pixel 9 series phone out of the box, walk through setup, and then join the Android 15 Beta program.

In a brief note on the Android 15 release notes page, Google says that as of August 22, all of the new Pixel 9 models have been added to the beta. They’ve posted both factory image and OTA files, for those looking to get started.

As of this moment, I’m not seeing my Pixel 9 review units listed as eligible in the Android Beta Program page. However, that could change before the day ends. I’ll update this post if that does indeed change.

For now, Pixel 9 owners can sideload OTA or factory image files to get on Android 15 Beta 4.2. It is the same AP31.240617.015 build that was released on August 13 for the rest of the still-supported Pixel line-up.

On a related note, there’s a chance that we get an even newer Android 15 build at any moment. Google told us that Android 15 QPR1 is on the way. UPDATE: It’s available now!

I received my 9xlp from Metapod last evening. Coming from a Samsung and iOS user.. I have to say this phone feels diff and better than previous Pixel lineups. It feels premium and its super duper light. Using it feels nice too. Im switching from my 15 pro to this highly likely.

Those who are on the fence, with the current last batch of promos wherever, just take it lol. Think the nice big promo is likely black friday. I think Google store sets with the voucher is good.

Just encountered another Issue with my Pixel 9 Pro XL. Using the same Ugreen 65w charger that I've been using to charge my S22U at home for the past 1 year+, it usually takes me 1h+ to fully charge my S22U from 10-20% to 100%, while for my P9P XL it took almost 3 hours from 10:30pm to 1:30am.

Bought Pixel Pro 9XL from Singtel Flagship Store on Shopee and it's out for delivery as of 7:27 am today. Back on the Pixel series after Pixel 2XL and Pixel 3 (y)(y)(y)
Mine still says in transit - your parcel arrived at transit facility at 02:22 hours :(

Is there any fast charging option you need to enable on the phone first? If not then it could also depend what charging standards the P9PXL is using now. Last 2 pixels were using PD+PPS

I initially also thought need to enable fast charging since that was an option on my Samsung. But when I went to settings I only found Adaptive Charging and it is turned on, I tried turning it off but it didn't improve charging speed either so I just kept it on.

The charging I'm using is this:
https://www.amazon.sg/UGREEN-Charger-Adapter-Compatible-Macbook/dp/B08CDDSVN4

It states that it supports both PD and PPS, using port 2 that supports full 65w and no other device connected to it.

Launch date is 22nd aug, naturally pre order vouchers promo would have ended . You will have to wait for next online promo voucher like payday or 9.9
