Samsung continues to roll out new Galaxy Android 7.1.1 Nougat updates as we approach the release of the first Android 8.0 Oreo upgrade.
Samsung Galaxy Android 8.0 Oreo updates are on the way, but the company is still focused on delivering new Android Nougat software to Galaxy smartphone and tablet owners.
Last week, AT&T sent an Android 7.1.1 Nougat update to the Galaxy J3 (2016). The update delivered Android Nougat, Video Calling, Wi-Fi Calling, and Samsung’s August security patches.
This week, Samsung’s update to Android 7.1.1 Nougat push out To Galaxy J5 (2016). The update is currently available in Europe (Poland), but we expect it to reach more regions and more devices in the near future.
Like previous Android 7.1.1 Nougat updates, Samsung Galaxy J5 (2016) Android 7.1.1 update brings features, bug fixes, performance improvements and surprisingly Samsung Experience 8.5 from Nougat. Samsung Experience 8.5 first arrived with the Galaxy Note 8 and offers better performance and an upgraded Device Manager app.
Speaking of the Galaxy Note 8, it’s also getting a new version of Android 7.1.1 Nougat today. Samsung’s October patch hits its flagship device at the end of October, bringing fixes for 215 Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures (CVEs) in Android and six patches for potential vulnerabilities found in Samsung’s own software.
Galaxy Note 8’s update has arrived available now We expect China and Hong Kong to open up in other regions in the coming days.
Samsung’s Android 7.1.1 Nougat update continues to gain momentum, but most Galaxy users currently running Android 7.0 Nougat can expect an upgrade to Android 8.0 Oreo rather than Android 7.1.1 or Android 7.1.1.
Most of the changes in Android 7.1.1 Nougat were made in Samsung’s version of Android 7.0 Nougat.
Samsung still hasn’t confirmed plans for Android 8.0 Oreo, but the company is reportedly working on software behind the scenes.
The company is reportedly testing Android 8.0 Oreo on the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ and has an Android 8.0 Oreo beta planned for Galaxy S8 users. Unfortunately, we still don’t have an official timeline for its release.
The Samsung Galaxy Note 8, Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ should be in the first place for Android 8.0 Oreo, but we expect popular devices like the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge to be upgraded as well.
Samsung’s list of Android 8.0 Oreo update also includes Galaxy A7 (2017), Galaxy A5 (2017), Galaxy A3 (2017), Galaxy J7 (2017), Galaxy J5 (2017), Galaxy Note 7 FE and Galaxy Tab S3. should contain. .
Samsung’s Android Oreo rollout will be extensive, but popular devices like the Galaxy Note 5 and Galaxy S6 are now in danger of missing out on Android 8.0 as they’ve been given two years of software support. Samsung usually offers major software upgrades for two years before dropping support.
The Galaxy S6 and Galaxy Note 5 may not have Android Oreo, but Samsung and its partners should continue to support them with bug fixes and security patches in the future.
