Android 15 updates have started hitting phones — just not yours

[phillynews215]

• Funtouch OS 15 has started landing for the vivo X Fold 3 Pro.
• The Android 15-based release arrives just three weeks after Google’s code hit the AOSP.

How big of a tease does Android 15 feel like right now? Maybe we’ve all gotten a little too used to aggressive release schedules, and broad public betas, but this year’s Android upgrade has sure felt a lot more difficult to access than most in recent memory. The new Pixel 9 phones arrived without Android 15 on board, and Samsung is taking its sweet time getting its own Android 15-based One UI 7 to testers. As most of us sit around twiddling our thumbs, it turns out that one manufacturer’s Android 15 update has already started heading out to phones.

Over the summer we found ourselves enamored with the vivo X Fold 3 Pro. The slender, lightweight foldable felt like it could pull off this modern form factor without compromising on things like a powerful camera or exceptional battery life. We even found the software quite polished, and really the biggest downside was that it was only available in India and Indonesia.
