Moving on to other Android update news. If you want up-to-date security fixes for your smartphone, it might be time to let go of your Pixel 3. The company has confirmed it is delivering the last security update for the Pixel 3 and 3 XL, which is in line with a previous announcement that the first quarter of 2022 will mark the last time the device will get an update. It's unclear what the patch fixes, but the build ID supposedly matches an October patch released on newer Pixel models. So, this release is more of a catch-up update than the latest patch.

If you own a Pixel 3a or newer, those just received a February 2022 update that takes on some pesky problems, including reboots after camera use, Bluetooth audio disconnection and quality issues, carrier-specific connection troubles, and more.
