Quiet day today, so installed it. I was already on build QP1A.190711.020
It now ends in 020.C3. Cant see any immediate changes.
Also, my Pixel 3 shows the software version at the side of the "edit" pencil in the drop down tiles menu.
My wife's Pixel 3 does not. No idea why.

You have developer options enabled.

Was just coming into say this, from 020 to 020.C3

No idea what the changes are tho.

In addition to Google posting new images yesterday, a QP1A.190711.020.C3 OTA is rolling out today. Some Pixel 3 and Pixel 3a users already on the Android 10 September security patch are receiving an over 1GB update with the full OS release notes attached. Others are just seeing a 2.4MB OTA that “fixes critical bugs.”

Does anyone else get horrific battery life / call quality on their pixel 3?

Mine seems to bleed battery and call quality is poor, I keep cutting out to people!

I used to experience call quality issues especially when switching to speaker phone but an RMA (camera focus problem) resolved that.

Still loving my 3XL by the way. First high end phone I've ever owned, normally gone for mid range.

Got mine in February and don't know the 3A was coming out and I think in hindsight I would have gone for that. Much lower price but still A+ camera.

But I was In desperate need for a new blower as on my old Blackberry Priv the screen started to flicker, so was on its way out.

I used to think Android was slow as it would take a full minute for some apps to install but the Pixel flies through some app installs in 5 seconds, amazing.

Battery life is still very good. I can get through a full day if in a bit conservative. But I normally top up in the late afternoon just to make sure I can make it through to midnight.

Love the included fast charger, I just juice up when eating dinner and it gets me through the evening.

I did buy the phone on the hope that call screen would eventually come to the UK, but alas, still we wait.
