Today is the first Monday of the month which means Google has released the May 2019 Android security patches. The last two months included some important functional updates for the Pixel 3 and Pixel 3 XL. This month, the update is pretty barebones. There are no functional updates for Google Pixel devices.
Regardless, the Android security patches have been released for the Google Pixel, Pixel XL, Pixel 2, Pixel 2 XL, Pixel 3, and Pixel 3 XL. The Pixel C is no longer receiving major OS updates, so its monthly update is still Android 8.1 Oreo. As per usual, the Essential Phone is also receiving the Android security update on the same day.
