If you own this year’s flagship phones from Xiaomi, OPPO, and POCO, you are probably running a beta version of Android 11 already. The rest of us on the other hand have to wait for the stable update to be available. If you are wondering when the stable update will be officially announced by Google, then you are in the right place.

At yesterday’s “Hey Google” Smart Home Summit, a video was shown that contained a slide that is presumed to point at the launch date of Android 11 stable.

The slide has the heading “Checklist for September 8th Android 11 launch” which means the new version of Android should be announced on that day. Android 10 launched on Tuesday, the 3rd of September last year. This year’s date also falls on a Tuesday.

Android 11 launch date

It is too early to say which phones will get the stable update on day 1 other than the Google Pixel line. Essential no longer makes phones and the PH-1 received its last update in February. However, Xiaomi/Redmi may surprise us again like it did last year and make the update available for one of its phones.
