  "account": "As of August 17, 2026, only a select few smartphones are currently running Android 17. Google's Pixel line, including models from the Pixel 6 series up to the Pixel 10 series, are among the first to receive the update. Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8, Z Fold 8 Ultra, and Z Flip 8 are also among the early adopters. Motorola's Edge 2025 and a suite of newer flagship phones, including the Razr 70 series and Edge 70, are on track for stable Android 17 rollouts. However, brands such as OnePlus, Xiaomi, OPPO, Vivo, and Honor have yet to confirm stable versions for their devices. Google's Pixel 11 series, launched in August 2026, already ships with Android 17. The Pixel 6 and 6 Pro, nearing the end of their update cycle, will not receive further updates. Older Samsung and Motorola devices, including the Galaxy S22 and S21 FE, as well as the Moto G56, will not receive Android 17.",
