Samsung delayed Oreo update for various Galaxy smartphones

Samsung was trying to begin rolling out Android Oreo update to Galaxy devices as soon as the latest version was available and the Korean smartphone manufacturer started rolling out the update and updated only its flagship phones to Android 8.1 which were already compatible to the update but now it is going to update the latest Android version Oreo to some of its affordable smartphones.

According to some sources, there are at least eight Galaxy smartphones that were scheduled to get Android Oreo in December including Galaxy A9 Pro, Galaxy C7 Pro, Galaxy C9 Pro, Galaxy J7 2017, Galaxy J7 Neo, Galaxy On5 2016, Galaxy On7 2016, and Galaxy On7 2018.

Samsung has changed the update schedule due to some software reasons and stability issues to save its reputation. Other devices that might receive Android Oreo are the Galaxy Tab S3, Galaxy Tab A 2017 and the Galaxy J7 Max, although they are scheduled to get the update sometime between August to November.

To see if an update to Android Oreo has already arrived at your Samsung Galaxy device, you have to go to the Settings, then scroll down to Software Update. You can tap on Download updates manually if there will be an update available for your device it will be downloaded otherwise a popup will appear that your phone is already up to date, or to avoid all this hustle and frequent checking you can turn on Download updates automatically and it will be downloaded as soon as the update arrives for your device.
