> Google today [launched the first Android 11 developer preview](https://venturebeat.com/2020/02/19/google-launches-android-11-developer-preview-1/), available for download now at [developer.android.com](https://developer.android.com/preview/download.html). The preview includes a preview SDK for developers with system images for the Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3, Pixel 3 XL, Pixel 3a, Pixel 3a XL, Pixel 4, Pixel 4 XL, and the official Android Emulator.

_While it’s the fifth year running that Google has released the first developer preview of the next Android version in Q1, this is the earliest developer preview yet. Android N (later named Android Nougat), Android O (Android Oreo), Android P (Android Pie), and Android Q (Android 10) were all first shown off in the month of March. Last year, Google used the [Android Beta Program](https://www.google.com/android/beta), which lets you get early Android builds via over-the-air updates on select devices._

- This year, however, Google is not making the first preview available as a beta (you’ll need to manually flash your device). In other words, Android 11 is not ready for early adopters to try, just developers.
