The Samsung Galaxy S8 was officially unveiled in April. Android O was officially announced shortly after as a trial version. However, it was not until August that the final version of the new version of the operating system was presented. However, it is now that work has started on Android 8.0 Oreo for the Samsung Galaxy S8.
They start working on Android 8.0 Oreo for the Samsung Galaxy S8
While it is true that work could have started on the update to Android 8.0 Oreo for the Samsung Galaxy S8 a long time ago, based on the test versions of the new version of the Android O operating system, the truth is that it is now when work begins on the update to Android 8.0 Oreo for the Samsung Galaxy S8.
When will it be available?
Now, taking into account that work is beginning now on the update to the new version, when will the update for the Samsung Galaxy S8 arrive? Probably the update to the new version would not arrive until 2018. And so it would be in the case of the Samsung Galaxy S8. Logically, mid-range smartphones, such as the Galaxy A3 (2017), Galaxy A5 (2017) and Galaxy A7 (2017), or entry-level mobiles, such as the Galaxy J3 (2017), Galaxy J5 (2017), Galaxy J7 (2017), they will update to Android 8.0 Oreo in 2018, but not in January, probably, but rather in the middle of 2018, just as it is right now when many smartphones of the Galaxy A series and Galaxy J series are receiving the update to Android 8.0 Oreo.
Really relevant?
However, recently we affirmed that the update to Android 8.0 Oreo would not be very relevant for many smartphones, because having firmware versions with a high level of user interface customization, updates to new versions of the operating system already they won't be as relevant. In many cases, phones with Android 7.0 Nougat will be almost the same when they update to Android 8.0 Oreo.
