In early September, Google released the first beta of the upcoming Android 13 quarterly platform version 1, aka QPR1. And today, the company continues with the second beta version. There should be a third in November, followed by the stable version in December.
Google says the second Android 13 QPR1 beta comes with the October 2022 security patches applied. The beta version receives them only a few days after the stable trunk.
The new build number is T1B2.220916.004, and it comes with Google Play Services version 22.26.15. This release is expected to include bug fixes and stability and performance improvements, though Google doesn’t have a less vague changelog than this.
While the usual precautions apply to installing non-final software releases, these QPR beta builds should be more stable than early developer preview builds for newer Android releases, as they are beta builds. after all. There are also only three, followed by the appropriate version.
Android 13 QPR1 Beta 2 is available for Pixel 4a, Pixel 4a 5G, Pixel 5, Pixel 5a, Pixel 6, Pixel 6 Pro and Pixel 6a.
