Android-13-LogoHere are all the devices that will receive Android 13 in November

Released on August 15, Android 13 was rolled out to eligible Pixel devices on the very same day. But it takes some time for the update to roll out to other devices. That’s not to say that the Pixels aren’t the only phones running Android 13 right now – Samsung’s flagship lineup and a few OnePlus devices have got the new operating system. But what about other devices? We’ve listed offerings from various OEMs and when they’ll gain early access to Android 13 below.

Samsung

Samsung’s software rollout speeds have improved over the years. The South Korean company has already started seeding the update to several of its Galaxy S and Galaxy Note models meaning more devices may be in the pipeline.

The list of Galaxy devices that have received Android 13 stable:

Realme

Realme was one of the early birds when it came to announcing an Android 13 early access timeline for its devices. It’s yet to reveal the next iteration of its Realme UI skin, though, and hasn’t made any mentions of Realme UI 4. The company’s flagship – Realme GT 2 Pro – received Android 13 beta last month but it was still based on Realme UI 3.

Asus

Asus is yet to release an official roadmap but it’s already kicked off the Android 13 beta program for Zenfone 9 and the ROG Phone 6. If all goes well these devices should be treated to the stable version of the update in a few months. As for the likes of the Zenfone 8 series and the ROG Phone 5 series, Asus is yet to even kick off Android 13 beta.

Other devices

Aside from the aforementioned, there are currently no other major brands running beta programs for Android 13. That obviously means that these brands haven’t yet released stable Android 13 either. Xiaomi is currently testing multiple devices from the Mi series, Redmi, and Poco internally but has yet to release any beta builds outside of China. Meanwhile, the Nothing Phone 1 will only be getting a beta build at the end of the year, with stable scheduled for “early 2023.”
