Motorola has been actively working on Android 16. It began beta testing in June for select devices and expanded its availability to more models over the coming weeks and months. After extensive beta testing, the brand has now started rolling out the stable update.
The Motorola Edge 60 Pro is reportedly the company’s first phone to get the stable Android 16 update. The update has been spotted in Brazil with the firmware version W1VV36H.7-21-5 and a download size of about 2GB.
The Edge 60 Pro is not the only Moto device getting the stable update. It’s also rolling out to the Edge 50 Fusion users in Mexico. For this device, the Android 16 update comes with the firmware version W1UU36H.21-14-3 and requires users to download a 1.54GB update package.

The Android 16 update for Motorola Edge 60 Pro and Edge 50 Fusion is currently available in select regions. It could soon expand to other regions. If you have any of these two smartphones, go to Settings > System > Advanced > System updates and tap on Check for updates to see available updates.

What’s new in Android 16 for Motorola phones?
Both Motorola smartphones carry the same changelog for the Android 16 update, which reveals the phones are getting more customization features, a more expressive design, and more transparent background activities. The update also adds protection against malicious apps and improved compatibility with LE audio devices.
Notably, the changelog misses many exciting features that Google introduced with Android 16, including Live Updates for tracking ongoing activities without needing to open apps, intelligent notification grouping, an embedded photo picker, predictive back upgrades, HDR screenshots, new emojis, and more. We are not sure if Motorola has added them (or at least some of them) to the Android 16 update for the Edge 60 Pro and Edge 50 Fusion.
