The Nothing OS 5.0 reveal is also likely to have more details on the beta program for select Phone devices, with the first Nothing Phone not part of the update cycle anymore. Nothing should ideally also tell us when and which devices will be upgraded to Android 17 and that is sure to include the latest Phone 4a and 4b models as well as the flagship Phone 3 smartphone.

Android 17 got its official release with the Pixel 11 models from Google but the new version has also made its way to Samsung’s new Galaxy Z Fold 8 models. Nothing will be one of the first outside of this axis to bring Android 17 update and we hope the brand could offer the final stable release before the year ends.

The Android 17 update has some new additions like Bubbles which enhances multitasking on foldables, giving you a floating screen to browse across apps. You also get better privacy options and stringent sideloading.
