The update brings some new features and numerous improvements that further enhance the software experience.<\/p>\n<p>The Android 16 update for the Moto G75 has started rolling out a month after the device entered beta testing. This is not unusual, though, as brands take a couple of weeks to refine the update and ensure the build has no critical bugs. The latest update bears the firmware version W1UQ36H.73-6, as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/motorola\/comments\/1qie7jy\/got_the_android_16_update_on_g75\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">shared<\/a> by users on Reddit (via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ytechb.com\/moto-g75-starts-getting-android-16-update\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Ytechb<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Moto-G75-Android-16-update.webp.webp\" class=\"td-modal-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"383\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/Moto-G75-Android-16-update.webp.webp\" alt=\"Moto G75 Android 16 update\" class=\"wp-image-724299\"  \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Since it\u2019s a major upgrade, users will need to download a large update package of about 1.8 GB. It\u2019s best to download such hefty packages over a Wi-Fi connection. To download the update, go to Settings &gt; System updates &gt; Check for updates.<\/p>\n<p>Note that the updates are usually rolled out in batches. So, it may take a few days or even weeks to reach all the users. Once the update reaches your device, ensure your Moto has sufficient storage and charge it to at least 50% before installing the update.<\/p>\n<p>In terms of changes, you wouldn\u2019t notice significant visual upgrades, but there are several useful upgrades to look forward to. This includes a new Notification cooldown feature that reduces the volume of incoming notifications when receiving too many notifications from the same app within a short time span.<\/p>\n<p>With Android 16, you can connect to another device\u2019s hotspot without a password, provided both devices are logged into the same Google account. Not a big change, but a quality-of-life improvement. The Do Not Disturb, Bedtime, and Driving modes are now in Settings &gt; Modes. Additionally, you can create custom modes as needed. Improvements have also been made to hearing aids, device security, and overall stability.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>You can regularly visit the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gizmochina.com\/category\/motorola\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">Motorola section<\/a>\u00a0on Gizmochina to stay up-to-date with the latest news and developments.
