6:02 AM , , , ,

If you're rocking a Nokia 8.1, now is the best time to get started with Android Q.

What you need to know

  • The Nokia 8.1 is now picking up the Android Q Beta 5 update.
  • Along with the July 2019 security patch, the update includes a new corner swipe gesture for invoking Google Assistant.
  • If you're not enrolled yet, you can get started with the beta program by heading to HMD's website.

Android Q Beta 5 is now making its way to the Nokia 8.1. The device joined the list of 15 phones from third-party OEMs to be included in the Android Q beta program, and is now receiving the Beta 5 build, nearly a month after it began rolling out to the Pixels.

The update includes the July 2019 security update as well as the new gesture for invoking Google Assistant — swiping from either corner of the screen.

If you're rocking a Nokia 8.1 and are already enrolled in the Android Q beta, an OTA update will be rolling out to your device shortly. Not in the beta yet? Head to HMD's website to sign up.
