I own a Pixel Tablet bought at murena. It came with A14. There have been several updates since reception. But they always kept using A14. Isn’t there a more recent version of the OS ?
Fresh install :
/e/OS official tangorpro download
/e/OS community tangorpro download
Update or Upgrade :

There is a community Android 16 version of /e/OS for your device, but you are currently on official. I guess you are not keen to manually re-install /e/OS to change to community, so I recommend you keep an eye on Manoj’s weekly updates to see when you are getting Android 16 for official via the Updater.

Thanks !
Indeed, the 1st link only shows the official versions with a14 while the 2nd links to a16 versions. From what I understand the a16 versions are community and not official.
Is there a mean to follow development progress through RSS or something like that ? I don’t want to brick my device since I use it daily and it’s marked as “To Be Planned”.
It’s not that I’m not keen on switching to community : I’m already using Debian Testing everywhere to participate in Debian development. But I do not have the luxury to buy several tablets 
Android has an extra hurdle compared to Debian stable. The different Release types are explained in the link.
Android version upgrade automatically is a “Google only” service, it is not shared with AOSP.
The big step for /e/ devs is to build and test the OTA upgrade which is available only for the official releases. Official often lags for this reason; own opinion, developing the OS from development to stable is probably less significant in terms of release timing.
Edit. No RSS is needed to follow weekly-updates , just follow the hashtag and forum subscribe using the 
icon near top right of the page.
