Do you think you'll receive Android Oreo on your smartphone?
Finally got the galaxy phone update in June, but still waiting on the Samsung tab A tablet update. Haven't seen a tablet update or security update for the A 10.1 since Dec 2017. Not all of us can bankroll a new tablet every few months...what gives?
My UK unlocked Samsung A3 2017 received it's over the air Oreo 8.0 update complete with June 2018 security patch on 24/06/2018.
why won't ZTE phones get the updates?
Absolutely abysmal service from Samcrap.
I expect Oreo to come up with eSsential improvements.
Thanks for sharing a such good information regarding Android Oreo. I like much about Oreo is control over the battery and security as well as adjustment of night light intensity. If you are looking to find a best antivirus app to secure your phone, then you can visit to these top 7 application.

Updated alreday few weeks ago on Xiaomi Mi6 :)
Got tired of waiting a year for an update with bugs....
galaxy S8 / S8+ in Brazil have already received the update for Oreo, last month
As of 3/14/18 No update to Oreo for my AT&T S8 or my Note 8 ??? Are they waiting till after the launch of the S9 so they can sell more of those with the update already installed?
Would not surprise me. I was on the "beta of the Mate 9 (we only got ONE beta), but many did not get the Oreo "legit" until AFTER the Mate 10 was official.
Already received this update a month ago on my Xiaomi Mi A1
As of 3/7/18 ....I do not have Oreo on my Galaxy S8 or my Note 8 ??? When exactly is this happening...????.?.???
i received on my S8 and u dont loose nothing, many app. dont work after upgrade, so i returned to android 7
Nice!
Exactly samsung shouldn't rush? Ha ha ha ive got news for you they aren't in fact in the UK they've stopped the ota release because of problems. Typical samsung.
So you'd rather them continue with bugs and all?
What im saying is sony updated my xzpremium six months ago and with no bugs or problems samsung seem unable to do this!Not good for a manufacturer that supposedly is near the top???
Why so many complaints about how long it is taking Samsung to roll it out? Do you want it quick and had Pixel problems or do you want it correct?
