Google released Android 8.0 Oreo update, the latest version of Android mobile operating system, in August 2017. Android 8.0 Oreo has been announced for a while now, but the final version is still being rolling out on most available smartphones, thanks to the long-standing problem of Android fragmentation. A very few smartphones, other than those which are ‘made by Google’ have actually received the update. Every manufacturer has set a different timeline for the rollout of Android 8.0 Oreo. Some like HMD Global (Nokia Mobiles) and Honor have already begun rolling out the update to some devices. We give an overview of which devices are getting Android Oreo and when and what is the current status.
