List of devices Android Oreo update in India

Google yesterday announced the next version of Android and as expected, it was named as Oreo. Now, one thing that many people and enthusiasts will be thinking is whether their device will be updated to Android Oreo or not. It�s always a little difficult to track what companies say regarding updates.

Google

Starting off with Google, the Android-maker has revealed that it will be updating the Pixel phones and the Nexus 6P, 5X and the Nexus Player to Android 8.0 Oreo. For the Nexus 5X and Nexus 6P, the Oreo update could be the last major OS update, but it is possible that Google may try to leverage Project Treble and continue delivering major updates to those devices.

Pixel , Pixel XL , Nexus 5X , Nexus 6P , Nexus Player

Samsung

Samsung has a huge number of devices at any given point of time. The Korean giant releases several devices every few months, so it can get pretty confusing to keep a track of which devices are most likely to get the official Oreo update.

The Samsung Oreo update rollout will start with the current flagships and then trickle down to other devices based on their age.

Galaxy S8 , Galaxy S8+ , Galaxy S7 , Galaxy S7 Edge ,Galaxy Note 7 Fan Edition

Galaxy J7 2017 , Galaxy J7 Prime , Galaxy J5 2017 ,Galaxy Tab S3 ,Galaxy C9 Pro

Galaxy A7 2017 , Galaxy A5 2017 , Galaxy A3 2017

Motorola

Motorola�s Moto brand of smartphones portfolio has expanded drastically in the last year or so. The company has smartphones in the high-end, mid-range, budget segment as well as the entry level. Even though Motorola uses stock Android on its phones, it may take a while for the update to hit your device.

OnePlus

OnePlus does not have too many devices to bother about. The company has already confirmed that the current flagship, OnePlus 5, as well as the previous flagships, OnePlus 3 and OnePlus 3T will be updated to Android 8.0 Oreo.

Additionally, the company has also promised that all its smartphones will get a minimum of 2 years of OS update support. In light of this, all existing Nokia Android smartphones are expected to be updated to Oreo.

Xiaomi

Xiaomi has several smartphones in its Mi and Redmi lineup. While the company provides MIUI updates for a much longer period compared to other companies in the Android industry, these updates don�t always come with an updated version of Android.

The Redmi series always gets only 1 Android OS update, regardless of the MIUI version. The Mi series, on the other hand, gets OS updates for a much longer period. The Mi3, for example, was launched with Android 4.3 Jelly Bean and was updated to Android 6.0 Marshmallow.

Asus

Asus has already confirmed that it will be updating the entire Zenfone 4 and Zenfone 3 lineup will be updated to Android 8.0 Oreo by the second half of 2018.

Xiaomi Mi Note 3 may launch a little ahead of its time i.e., before the third quarter ends.

With respect to design, the Mi Note 3 have a front panel with near bezel-less display. There's expected to be a home button located right below the screen which is likely to integrate the fingerprint scanner as well.

Apple just got the green light to test 5G internet for future iPhones

The future of mobile technologies inches ever closer as Apple received the go-ahead to test out 5G wireless broadband connectivity.

Granted by the FCC just a few months after applying for a license, Apple has been granted permission to conduct trials with 5G millimeter wave technology on 28 GHz and 39 GHz frequency bands.

The move comes shortly after the regulatory agency opened up the commercial sale of certain 5G bands, with US mobile carriers such as AT&T, Verizon, Sprintand T-Mobile now making plans of their own to offer consumer-wide 5G within the next two years.

The mobile cart before the 5G horse

5G as a wireless standard is still a work in progress, with experts generally agreeing that the next-generation tech won't hit the mainstream until around 2020.

Apple is exploring the millimeter wave band for 5G tests is interesting though, given that recent 5G announcements from Sprint and T-Mobile have both shied away from the high-frequency bands that Apple is testing.

This can lead the term "5G" to be used loosely this early in the game unveiled its 5G Evolution service this spring, which turned out to be just really fast 4G.

Engineering data relevant to the operation of devices on wireless carriers� future 5G networks.� In other words, to start preparing for the eventual 5G iPhone that will no doubt exist one day.

Apple has no issue taking its sweet time, however, meaning it could still be years before we can reasonably expect a 5G-compatible iPhone to hit the market.

Though the next-gen service will likely skip the likes of, say, the upcoming iPhone 8, we imagine Apple doesn't intend to get left behind on the next big thing in the world of mobile technology.
