This is pretty interesting!
Amongst other stuff…
I wonder how early on Google will release a public beta this year…
Dunno, but I’m in…
Of interest is the (reported) change to the data in apps only being updated if they are being used - background apps will no longer update data, saving battery/location-pings/data usage/etc.
I’m going to be keeping a close watch of https://www.google.com/android/beta today 
Android Q might be launching today 
which means I’ll be rocking a wildly unstable Pixel 3XL for the next 6 months, jumping from preview build to preview build 
But hey, that dark mode though 
First time in a long time that I won’t be eligible for the beta as I’m still rocking an OG Pixel XL.
Apparently there’s this feature called Treble which makes it quick and easy to update phones but I guess Google don’t have the resources to support their two year old flagships. #LeadingByExample
I only just got P 
My Pixel 2 XL is ready!!!
The big question is will Monzo work out of the box with Q?
(Also: channelling Bond)
I’m sure there’s a detective out there who might be able to find out 
I wonder what said detective would prioritise: bleeding edge Q or a functioning Monzo? (A diabolic choice, I know…)
It’s ok, I’ll run Q on my android and monzo on my iPhone 
I knew it! Guards!
scarper 
Hahaha, my genuine answer would be stick with Q and offer as many details as possible to the Android devs in order to get it working 
Perhaps we can look forward to tomorrow instead 
More details coming out, must be getting closer to release:
The Q beta will apparently be available to even more devices compared to the Pie beta from last year. That one was available on devices by 8 different OEMs (Google, Essential, Nokia, OnePlus, Oppo, Sony, Vivo, Xiaomi). If they can get Samsung, LG, or Huawei on board this year that would be pretty cool.
Being a huge Google nerd I listen to the android developers backstage podcast and their project treble stuff has come along way they said in the last episode. I can see Q reaching more devices then ever
Getting closer…
YASS!
Paging @nexusmaniac @simonb
BATTLESTATIONS PEOPLE!
Haha 
Cheers for the heads up @TomCoutts I was in a world of my own writing a blog post, I’d not spotted the news yet 
Time to get flashing (Android updates that is )
If, like me, you don’t want to do something as simple as an OTA 
You can download the full factory image here: https://developer.android.com/preview/download
