Sticking to its schedule, Google is now rolling out Android Q Beta 4 to the Pixel smartphones, including the newly launched Google Pixel 3a and Pixel 3a XL. When the cheaper Pixel phones were launched last month, they had support for Android Q Beta, but it was later revoked saying the support will be added in June. Android Q Beta 4 is now available for the entire Pixel family including Pixel, Pixel XL, Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3, Pixel 3 XL, Pixel 3a and the Pixel 3a XL. Right after Google’s announcement, smartphone brand Essential came out and said the Essential PH-1 Android Q Beta users would start receiving the Beta 4 OTA update starting today, which is a good thing to hear. Other OEMs like OnePlus, Xiaomi, HMD Global can release the new beta update to their supported phones. A total of 19 smartphones have support for Android Q Beta, but it might take some time for OEMs to release the update.

Android Q Beta 4 Brings Final APIs
With Android Q Beta 4, Google is pushing the final APIs to the repository, meaning developers can now build apps for Android Q and add support via Google Play Store. The API level is API 29, as listed by Google on the official Android Developers website.
Android Q Beta 4: What’s New?
Right now, we don’t have the Android Q Beta 4 installed on any smartphone, but 9to5Google has listed a slew of changes which will come with the new beta update. Google has made some major changes to the overall interface; To start things off, Dynamic System Updates is now available for Pixel smartphone owners. This feature, spotted by folks at xda-developers, will allow users to install a system GSI file and test it for a temporary period. That said, after testing the installed GSI file, you can just reboot your smartphone to go back to the normal version.
