LineageOS 18.1 brings Android 11 to almost 60 phones - Android

Out with the old, in with the new: LineageOS cut support for Android 9 Pie earlier this year, and to make up for the loss, the open-source project has just released version 18.1 based on Android 11. It comes with official support for about 60 phones and tablets.

You might be wondering how LineageOS arrived at 18.1, given that there's no equivalent Android 11.1. That was also the case with LineageOS 17.1 based on Android 10, and the team explains that it based both ROMs on a later security patch update with fairly significant changes (The December patch in Android 11's case), prompting it to create an incremented minor version.
