December update and feature drop for Pixel 9
I am still waiting for the updates to be available for my Pixel 9. How many of you are in the same boat as me? 😃
My guess is the 10th. The updates are usually released on a Tuesday.

Thanks for responding. Google has already released it on the 5th and some folks already got it. It is a staggered release therefore is released in batches. I am curious as to who on T-mobile got it or is still waiting like me.
I've read that also and I buy my Pixels direct through Google but I have an 8 so my guess is that the 9 series were the first to get it which is fine because if there's any bugs then they can fix it.
My guess is is that everyone on T-Mobile is waiting because this happens every 3 months with every single feature drop. T-Mobile will hold this back for at least one week if not longer because that's what happens every single time.
T-Mobile has no impact on when those updates arrive. They come directly from Google.
Actually, typically Google updates things on Wednesdays. Previously, all patches were released on the first Monday of the month, but in recent months Google has just said they'll release them when they're ready. However, this was released on December 5th. T-Mobile just likes to hold them back. For some reason. It happens every 3 months with the feature drops.
The 5th of every month is when their suppose to release them. If the 5th doesn't fall on a Tuesday it seems like the release it the following Tuesday. I'm downloading it now.
Let's hope it is released today as you predicted it. 😃
Gramps28 yes you are absolutely correct about timing! It is being downloaded on my Pixel as I write. I am going to mark your response as a solution. Thank you so much for your input.🙂
