Google Pixel 6a to Get Mandatory Android 16 Update to Fix Battery Overheating Issues

Google on Wednesday announced the Battery Performance Program for the Pixel 6a. As part of this initiative, all Pixel 6a users will receive a mandatory update to Android 16. While the tech giant has already released the next iteration of the Android operating system (OS) for its phones from the Pixel 6 to the Pixel 9 series, the Pixel 6a has not been eligible for the update. However, that is now changing, with the mandatory Android 16 update for the handset arriving this month.
