It’s July 2024 and Motorola is still pushing out Android 14, maintaining a pattern of annual delays. Improvements in this area are scarce.
As for Android 15, it’s in the final stages before a stable release. The official schedule doesn’t specify dates, but it’s speculated that it will hit the Pixel 9 on August 13. If history goes by, the stable version could arrive by October.
There is no word on a Motorola beta program for Android 15. The stable update will likely begin in late December 2024 or early 2025. The first to receive it will likely be the Razr 40 and Edge 50 models.

Among the updates, support for satellite connectivity for text messages stands out. In addition, the Find My Device feature has been improved, now with Theft Detection Lockwhich blocks the device in suspicious movement and requires login to Google account after reset.
