It’s Still June, But Some Pixel Owners Just Got July’s Android Update

Pixel 3a

The July Android security patch showed up on a handful of Pixel 3a devices this morning, even though we are still in the month of June. Google screwed up in who they allowed to have the update, as the update page clearly states that this build is “CONFIDENTIAL INTERNAL ONLY.”

The Googlers-only update contains the July 5 patch level, weighs in at 79.8MB, and is build PQ3B.190705.003. The list of changes on its description only mentions that “critical bugfixes” are included, along with the monthly security patches.

What else is new? We won’t know unless one of the lucky redditors who got the update finds something. Otherwise, we’ll just assume it’s a regular old monthly patch. Still, let’s tighten it up over there, eh, Google?
