Google has started releasing the first beta version for Pixel phones Androidu 13 QPR3, which follows the January update Android 13 QPR2 Beta 2. What's new?

The most visible innovation is the shift in the colors displayed on the display. Specifically, this applies to dark mode apps, whose colors are now darker and have a reddish-brown tone, as well as screenshots. The change appears to be related to the calibration of the panels used in the Pixel phones.

Another novelty is the return of the percentage display of battery life. The battery life percentage is displayed in the upper right corner after swiping the screen down to bring up the notification bar.

Android 13 QPR3 Beta 1 also brings a full-screen wallpaper preview. If this feature sounds familiar to you, you're not wrong, as it has appeared before in the second developer preview Androidin 14

Android 13 QPR3 Beta 1 also fixes several bugs (probably from QPR2), including Bluetooth audio not working on some devices, the clock text on the lock screen being the wrong color, the fingerprint icon indicating the location of the fingerprint reader incorrectly changing to an exclamation mark, or when it was not possible to choose or use a live wallpaper. Sharp version Androidu 13 QPR3 (QPR stands for "Quaterly Platform Release" or quarterly update of the given version Androidu) should be released by Google in June.
