How to Install Android O Beta on Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, Nexus Player & Pixel Devices

As we all know, earlier this year, Google announced the new developer preview for Android O and made it available for the beta users. However, it was not the easiest thing to install on your smartphone since it required users to use fast boot to manually flash it. But now, things have changed and they have changed for the good. Yesterday, just before the Google I/O 2017 kick started, Google released the second beta release of the Android O.
This new release is a beta version and it should be much more stable now as compared to the last release which we had. And more importantly, you can now simply install the update by just signing up with the Android beta program. Do make a note that the update is only available for a few smartphones and not all the devices are eligible. The Android O Beta program is only available for Nexus 5X, Nexus 6P, Nexus Player, Pixel & Pixel XL. So if you have one of these devices, then you can read further and install the Android O Beta program.
