Summary created by Smart Answers AI

In summary:

  • According to Tech Advisor, Android 17 is set to be released in June 2026 and will be available on various smartphones from leading manufacturers, including the Samsung Galaxy S24-S26 series, Google Pixel 6-10 models, and several devices from OnePlus, Xiaomi, and Oppo.
  • This significant update is important because manufacturers are now committed to providing five years of support for devices released after 2025, with high-end models potentially receiving up to seven generations of Android updates.
  • Older smartphones such as the Galaxy S22 series, OnePlus 10 Pro, and Nothing Phone (1) will not be eligible for Android 17, which may necessitate purchasing new devices to maintain security.

Android 17, Google’s latest operating system update, is anticipated to launch in June 2026, offering exciting new features for Android users. Are you curious if your device will be eligible for this update? Read on to find out.

Since 2025, smartphone manufacturers have been required to offer updates for their devices for a minimum of five years. Consequently, the list of devices receiving Android 17 is similar to that of Android 16. However, some devices will be excluded from the update cycle this year.

Below, we provide an overview of which smartphones will continue to receive updates, including Android 17. The list is organized by manufacturer and includes links to our key reviews.

Note: Some manufacturers clearly specify their planned update periods, while others loosely follow the EU directive. Therefore, please consider this information cautiously, as it may change unexpectedly.

What can I do if my device no longer receives Android updates?

If your smartphone no longer receives major Android updates, there is no need to worry. Manufacturers provide a set number of updates that include new features and improvements, alongside minor updates and critical security updates that are independent of the Android 17 update.

If your device isn’t on the list to receive Android 17, check immediately to confirm if it still receives general support, ensuring that issues and security vulnerabilities are addressed. If not, consider purchasing a new smartphone.
