As is usually the case, the initial release of Android Pie will be available for Google’s own devices first, with more devices from the company’s hardware partners later in 2018. Here’s the current list of compatible Android devices that are eligible to install Android Pie:

Your phone should find the update and then begin to download and eventually install the update. The entire process will take about 30 minutes, depending on your internet connection.
