Google just dropped a minor update for the Android 16 QPR3 Beta program. The update arrives as Android 16 QPR3 Beta 2.1 and appears to be a little bug fixer that they didn\u2019t even provide a changelog for.<\/p>\n
The update is available as build CP11.251209.009 for the Pixel 6\/6 Pro\/6a\/7\/7 Pro, along with build CP11.251209.009.A1 for the other devices, like the Pixel 10 series. Again, we don\u2019t know of any changes, only that Google is pushing this out a few weeks before we expect this QPR3 build to go stable as the March Pixel update with Pixel Feature Drop goodies alongside it.<\/p>\n
