Google caps off I/O 2026 day one with Android 17 QPR1 Beta 3 release
TL;DR
- Android 17 QPR1 Beta 3 is now available for Pixel testers to install.
- Today’s release arrives just two weeks after Beta 2.
- Google says this update includes “a minor SDK release.”
Today was a massive one for Google, with the company announcing everything from a new Gemini model to Android XR smart glasses at I/O 2026. While we got most of our pure-Android news earlier this month at The Android Show I/O Edition, Google loves holding a few surprises for the last moment — and today, that spells Android 17 QPR1 Beta 3.
