Google updates the Android OS every year. Android 15 has a release date of fall 2024, so the next version, likely called Android 16, won't be out until 2025.
Looking at the last few Android updates, we see that Google likes to wait until the fall to release them. We expect this pattern to repeat itself next year.
Updates for the Android operating system are always free. Supported devices can install the Android update as soon as it is available.
