Note 8 - Oreo 8.0

[mxrider821]

Where is the Oreo update/beta/info for the Note 8??

The S8 and the S8 plus are on their 3rd Oreo beta already with the November security patch! I'm sitting over here with the August security patch still and no updates on my Verizon N8. I don't understand because usually the note line comes first w/ sammy but not this time I guess.

My S7 Edge even has the November security patch oh well I guess here comes the waiting game...waiting for updates is nothing new and part of the process especially with Verizon lol

I would expect it to be next year, all bugs ironed out plus a good few things arriving they couldn't implement with Nougat, I think Oreo will be a fair big upgrade for our Note

This article indicates early 2018 for the Note 8. May be further out into 2018 if the carriers don't already have 8.0 under development/test.

Samsung sucks at updates. It's crap the the latest phone doesn't get the Orio upgrade first.

When note 9 will be announced that's when oreo will be available for note 8

Give it at least 6 months from now. Chill and live life. You already have a fantastic phone with Android 7. Don't rush Android 8. Not going to make you a better human being

You'll want some P(ie) Android 9.0(?) To go with that Note 9 - gives the full taste of Treble I suppose.

I have had 3 Note series phones on AT&T and they updates of always come in February or March

Oreo = iOS 11. We are behind!

Agreed!
I had Oreo on my Pixel. Big woop. Now I have Nougat on my N8. Couldn't care less.

Is project Treble going to be part of Note8 Oreo update?

No, lots of posts on XDA state Samsung may choose to go against it. Also, It could have launched with oreo, but no, it choose Nougat.

What specific useful improvements, features should be expected when Oreo hits the Note 8 ??

 

[Gayle Lynn]

Oreo is beta. It'll hit S9. It isolates carrier partition from system making support updates easier and faster. Under the hood.

Phones that ship with 8.0.0+ will for all purposes have to support Treble.

Why all of the crying every single time there's an update? When you buy these, you know it will take awhile to update. Enjoy your phone now for what it is instead of already wishing for something else.
