Android 13 will not be officially launched until autumn, but Beta 1 has already started for the Google Pixel devices
After Google published the first developer preview for Android 13 in February and the second in March, the new version is now going into beta. Google has just posted a corresponding blog post on their Android blog veröffentlicht. There are few new functions, the main changes are in the stability of the software. The new functions will probably only be released with Beta 2 in May, which we will probably see at Google I/O 2022. Then a first beta for smartphones from other manufacturers should also appear, such as from OnePlus or Oppo.
If you are currently in the Android 12 beta program, you will unfortunately have to deregister your device from it, otherwise you will not receive any updates.

Beta 1 is available now for:
- Google Pixel 4 / XL
- Google Pixel 4a
- Google Pixel 4a with 5G
- Google Pixel 5
