Android 17 QPR1 giving you grief? Survey shows you’re not alone
Most respondents say the update has caused issues on their Pixels.
Since the Android 17 QPR1 update started being rolled out this month, a survey has revealed that a significant number of Pixel phone users are encountering issues. In a poll conducted by Android Authority, over two-thirds of the respondents reported that new problems have emerged since installing the September update. Readers could choose from various problem categories, including performance, connectivity, display, UI, and miscellaneous issues.
However, the majority of responses (nearly a third) indicated that Android 17 QPR1 had not caused any new problems for them. Still, this left around 68% of the vote to be distributed among the affirmative responses. The majority of those experiencing new issues (about 19%) reported a decline in performance, followed by 16% citing unexpected UI behavior and 14% mentioning new display glitches.
Approximately 11% reported new connectivity problems, while just over 7% had issues that were not listed among the options. Despite these findings, it appears that not all Pixel users are facing problems. Some readers have reported that their devices have been functioning smoothly since updating. The poll involved feedback from almost 1,000 out of 1,458 readers who had responded to the query at the time of the report.
