Android R running on Pixel 4 spotted | Features
"A new benchmark test was spotted in Geekbench in which Pixel 4 was running on Android R."
Its just been a couple of months since the official release of Android 10, and cycle is starting over once again. A new benchmark test was spotted in Geekbench in which Google Pixel 4 was running on Android R OS. But wait for a second, didn’t Google drop the alphabet naming and adapted numerical naming for their OS?
Yes, Google did drop the alphabet naming but it is possible that Google is keeping the alphabet naming for the developer preview version of the OS and then switching to Numerical system when the final version is ready to drop. A similar thing happened with Android 10, everyone was guessing what Android Q will be called but Google changed the naming system entirely.
From the listing, we see Android R running on Pixel 4 device with 6GB of Ram scoring 712 in the single-core test and 2,181 in the multi-core test. This could mean Android R developer preview is just around the corner.
But again as its just been couple of months since the release of Android 10 with majority of the device still running on Android 9 Pie, waiting for the Android 10 update, We believe it will be a while, maybe a couple of months that Google will start the Android R Developer Preview.
