Currently installing Pie update on Sprint.

It's installed and it's like a just got a brand new phone for free. Faster then it's ever been, dam even Bixby is a joy to use now. So glad I held off buying the S10 Plus. Loving my S8 Plus again. WOW

All S8 devices are supposed to get the update. When they get them is anyone's guess. Some already have it, and it could probably be 3 to 4 months for others.

Our two unlocked Galaxy S8+ T-Mobile phones we have updated overnight. So, we woke up to Android Pie on our phones on 1 Apr 2019.

How do you like it so far? Does it make a large difference intermixed with Samsungs UI? I've had Pie on a couple previous devices but both were Android One devices so their OS was basically stock android so they didnt really have hardly a skin at all that Pie had to integrate with. Samsung however has quite the Skin so I was curious how Pie meshed with Samsungs Skin? Congrats on receiving your update!
I like it a lot. It's a very fresh modern look and seems very smooth. All I've ever had is Samsung device's but it seems like it meshes well.

My AT&T S8 updated on Sunday. Looks great but running slow as molasses. Sometimes times out waiting for a page to load. Anybody else having this issue? Any suggestions?

I think battery life is much improved too. Usually by now I'm down to around 20% currently sitting at 47% without battery saver.

Dont think Verizon has even started rolling it out, so for those of us in the US on VZW, it's probably going to take quite a while. Wouldn't shock me a bit if it takes till may or June.

I also got the update. Unfortunately, I put a Galaxy theme on my phone and now can't use the new dark theme. I know how to delete it, so I tried. But, when it said delete... It deleted the word 'delete'! Now I have no way to get rid of it. Anyone have a suggestion? Thanks!

Just received it today on Xfinity Mobile. Xfinity runs on the Verizon network so I assume those of you having the S8 and S8+ on Verizon should be getting it also.

i have an S8 unlocked running on Verizon...does that mean I need to wait until Verizon rolls it out? Or can I download it separately somehow?
