This device has expired. Now what?
No more security updates will ever arrive for the Google Pixel 6. If it's your daily phone, the safest move is to replace it — ideally with a model that stays supported for years. The old one still makes a fine offline camera, alarm clock or backup device.
The Google Pixel 6 in detail
How many years of updates does the Google Pixel 6 get?
Released in October 2021, the Google Pixel 6 received security patches until October 2026: 5 years in total.
Among the 39 Google phones in our database, 14 were supported for less time and 17 for longer. The median is 5 years.
Across all brands, the median for phones is 4 years.
Can I keep using the Google Pixel 6?
Yes, it still works. But every security hole found after October 2026 stays open. For daily use with banking, messaging and passwords, a supported device is the safer choice. As a spare without your main accounts (alarm clock, music player, camera), it's still useful. Do a factory reset before you give it away or recycle it.
