Android 16 QPR1 Beta 1 now available for Pixel devices with Material 3 Expressive UI
Google has rolled the Material 3 Expressive UI changes into Android 16 QPR1 Beta 1, which you can download and try out today on a compatible Pixel phone. Note that this is aimed at developers and may not be stable enough for a daily driver – a stable release is expected next month.
