While Motorola has already released the Android 16 update to dozens of eligible devices, some high-end smartphones are still awaiting their turn. The Razr 2024 was also one of them, and it has now started receiving the Android 16 update, which brings a host of useful upgrades.

The latest update for Motorola Razr 2024 (also known as Razr 50) has been spotted rolling out in Canada with the firmware version W1UX36H.72-45-4. It’s a big upgrade with a download size of about 2GB. Android 16 is the second major OS update for the Razr 2024, and will receive another upgrade sometime next year as the final one. The device will, however, continue to receive security updates for a while.

As the initial release, the update is available in Canada, and soon, it will start rolling out to other regions. To check if the update is available on your Motorola smartphone, go to Settings > System updates > Check for updates. Once the update reaches your device, ensure that it has sufficient storage and is charged to at least 40% for a smooth upgrade to Android 16.

Here’s the complete Android 16 changelog, detailing every single change:

Feature improvements
After upgrading, you’ll see the following improvements to the Android operating system and other apps.

Find modes in one place
Now you can find these modes in Settings > Modes:

– Do Not Disturb
– Bedtime
– Driving

You can also create custom modes to fit any situation where you want to choose a different set of people or apps who can interrupt you.

Toggle these modes on or off in quick settings.

Connect to Wi-fi and hotspot with one tap
If your phone and device you want to connect to its hotspot are using the same Google account, you no longer need to enter a password to connect.

Better support for low-energy audio hearing aids
You can now choose to use either your hearing aid’s built-in microphone or your phone’s microphone during voice calls. Additionally, you can adjust the volume of ambient sound captured by the hearing aid’s microphones. These options help enhance call clarity, especially in noisy environments or when your hearing aid’s battery is running low.

Other improvements
Android system updates add more than new features. Using the latest Android update provides other improvements such as:
– Enhanced security and protection to defend against evolving threats like malware, phishing, and data breaches
– App compatibility with newer apps, which often require the latest Android version to function correctly
– Performance improvements that optimize your phone’s operating system for smoother performance, better stability, and, in some cases, longer battery life
– Bug fixes and stability enhancements to resolve known issues and improve overall reliability and stability
