Google has finally revealed what the "O" in Android O stands for, and it's exactly what we all predicted: the "O" is for...Oreo. 。

The announcement was made shortly after the solar eclipse on Monday, Aug. 21. Google is pushing Android Oreo out through the Android Open Source Project (AOSP).  。

Google Pixel, Nexus 5X, and Nexus 6P devices will be the first to receive the Android Oreo update, followed by the Pixel C and the Nexus Player. 。

Though Google reportedly didn't pay Nestlé any money for the branding — the partnership was to do something "fun and unexpected" according to John Lagerling, director of Android global partnerships — the company was still able to use the KitKat brand for Android 4.4.。
