We may only be a few weeks away from the next major Pixel feature update, but before that, Google is pushing yet another small update to Android 13 beta. It’s rolling out to Pixel phones with just one notable fix, adding network support.

While that appears to be the only notable fix, the update also adds support for Jio 5G on the Pixel 6 and Pixel 7 series.Reliance Jio now uses a standalone (SA) 5G network. It covers 277 cities across India, and Google’s latest flagship is now available.
Here is the full changelog for Android 13 QPR2 Beta 3.2 included in the release:
- Fixed an issue that could cause the screen to flash green or display other visual artifacts on some devices. (Issue #260941279, Issue #256052135)

It’s a fairly minor update, and to be expected given how close we are to a stable quarterly platform release on Pixel phones. Google points out on his official Reddit account for the Android beta that this is “his final QPR2 beta build before his March official release coming in a few weeks.” Also note that once the public release goes live, users will be able to exit the Android 13 Beta program without having to wipe their phones.
