Google delays Android 11 release, says “not the time to celebrate”

By -
In a statement published on its Android developer website, Google noted, “We are excited to tell you more about Android 11, but now is not the time to celebrate." “We are postponing the June 3 event and beta release.”



Google previously announced that Android 11 launch event will take place on June 3 via an online event due to the Covid-19 pandemic. However, given the situation across the world is still the same the tech giant has decided to delay the launch and also the beta release of Android 11. Google believes that this is not the time to celebrate.

In a statement published on its Android developer website, Google noted, “We are excited to tell you more about Android 11, but now is not the time to celebrate.” “We are postponing the June 3 event and beta release.”

As noted earlier the launch event of Android 11 was originally scheduled for this week via a virtually meet. In an official tweet, Google noted that it will announce more details about the new version of Android “soon”. However, the company didn’t announce any specific date for the announcement as of yet.

According to Reuters, the launch of Android 11 has been postponed due to the on-going protests in the United States. “Protests have spread across the United States over the killing of George Floyd, a Minneapolis black man who died after being pinned by the neck under a white police officer’s knee,” the publication noted.

Back in February this year Google announced the first developer preview of Android 11. The preview was available only for select Pixel phones including Google Pixel 2, Pixel 2, Pixel 3a and Pixel 4. The list didn’t mention the original Pixel phone. Some of the key focus areas of Android 11 are: camera, 5G, privacy, security improvements, new screen types and more.
