Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 devices seem to be now following a quarterly update schedule instead of monthly patches.

What you need to know

  • Google's February 2026 Pixel update is small, likely holding back major changes for the upcoming Android 16 QPR3 release.

  • The update skips Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 series phones, hinting at a shift away from monthly updates for older devices.

  • Google says affected Pixel phones will remain security compliant, but offers little clarity on future update frequency.
