Motorola’s Android 16 Update sorats in India with the Edge 60 Pro

Motorola's Android 16 Update

Motorola has moved quickly from June’s Android 16 beta to a stable build that began rolling out today, October 8, 2025, beating several major Chinese rivals to the punch. The Motorola’s Android 16 Update is now live in India for a first wave of devices, with more models expected to follow in the coming weeks.

Motorola’s Android 16 Update First wave: which phones get it now

  • Motorola Edge 60 Pro

  • Motorola Edge 60 Fusion

  • Motorola Edge 50 Pro

These are the same flagships that received Android 16 in the initial global wave, which also included the Moto G (2025) in select regions.

Motorola’s Android 16 Update: Download size and practical notes

The OTA package weighs in at ~3.5GB. Motorola recommends updating over Wi-Fi, ensuring sufficient free storage and at least 50% battery (or plugging in) before installing.

What’s new in Motorola’s Android 16 build

Motorola’s Android 16 release focuses on polish and control rather than headline theatrics. Key additions include:

  • Notification Auto Grouping for cleaner, smarter alert stacks.

  • Modes to tailor system behavior for work, travel, or downtime.

  • Security upgrades across biometrics, permissions, and system hardening.

  • A raft of stability and performance tweaks aligned with Google’s Android 16 baseline.

What about other Motorola devices?

Motorola hasn’t published a full eligibility roadmap beyond the launch batch. Given recent policy trends, expect recent budget, mid-range, and premium models to be added progressively—subject to region and carrier testing windows.

Bottom line: This is a swift, confidence-building rollout from Motorola. If you own an Edge 60 Pro, Edge 60 Fusion, or Edge 50 Pro in India, Android 16 should be waiting—just clear space, charge up, and dive in.
