The Pixel 11 series is set to receive an early September update, not the Android 17 QPR1 release. Google is currently pushing out an out-of-cycle update for the devices, which will provide a security patch on September 1, 2026. On Tuesday, Pixel 11 series users received an OTA update to CD1A.260905.001.A1, replacing the previous version CD1A.260714.001.A9.
The update focuses on fixing critical bugs and improving device performance and stability. So far, the update has been rolled out to Pixel 11 Pro, 11 Pro XL, and 11 Pro Fold models, with an OTA size under 100 MB. Google has not yet released factory or OTA images. This update is distinct from Android 17 QPR1, as several visual changes from the latter are still absent.
The rapid deployment of this patch suggests that Google identified and addressed Pixel 11 issues since the product's launch.
