Can confirm on a Pixel 6a.
Says September is the latest system update. Click check updates, says it's up to date, click check updates again, says it's preparing system update and hangs out for a while - then says it's downloading and installing a 781M update.
WTF?
Update: OK finally the update completes an hour later, even the reboot took longer than usual - says it's "updated to December 5, 2025"
This phone running Android 16 for a bit over a month now.
