List of Android Pie (Android 9) ports for smartphones

Google's next version of Android called Android 9(Pie) is all set to run on Pixel phones and other devices that participated in the Beta program. Sony Mobile, Xiaomi, HMD Global, Oppo, Vivo, OnePlus, and Essential, as well as all eligible Android One devices, will receive this update soon. We have seen ports of the latest Android version make their way to devices as old as the original Motorola Moto G and OnePlus One.

There are so many devices on our forums that it's hard to find the first ports of Android Pie for your device. So, we have shared a list of Android smartphones and tablets that have received an unofficial Android 9 Pie custom ROM.

Android 9 includes features like Gesture Navigation, which removes the recent apps overview button and replaces the original home button with a pill that can slide up to show recent apps or slide right to quickly switch between apps, while on the other hand, Adaptive Brightness learns how you like to set the brightness in different settings, and does it automatically for you.

Android 9 also has Digital Wellbeing which is designed to help you use your smartphone less by tracking your usage and wind down at night to prevent distractions (officially only available for the Google Pixel, but can easily be enabled unofficially). It comes with App Actions and slices API- the former API allows apps to show predictive actions while the latter allows apps to show a part ("slice") of their UI inside of another app.
