Samsung took to its forums to assure owners of unlocked handsets that Android 8 Oreo is on the way.
The company has been updating carrier-branded versions of the Galaxy S8, S8+, and Note8 to Android 8 Oreo over the last few weeks.
Samsung says the delay in getting Oreo to its unlocked devices is that the update needs more rigorous testing to ensure it works with the majority of carriers worldwide.
“We’re working with our carriers to get Oreo out to all eligible Galaxy S8/+ and Note8 devices within the next 2-3 weeks,” said Samsung.
The company said final testing is still pending, so it can’t guarantee the exact date for the update. The update includes the core Android 8 code in addition to the latest version of Samsung’s user interface.
