Samsung started rolling out the Galaxy S8 Oreo update to non-beta users with the Galaxy S8 and the Galaxy S8+ in markets like Turkey, India, Germany, Norway, Spain, Denmark, Sweden, Georgia, Belgium, the UAE earlier today.
The update is only available over-the-air at this point in time but it should go live on Samsung Smart Switch as well as our firmware section later this week. It’s the same G950/G955-FXXU1CRAP firmware version that was rolled out to beta users first with the February 2018 security patch onboard.
Samsung seems to be conducting a phased rollout for the Galaxy S8 Oreo update probably because it doesn’t want the OTA server to run into any problems. That’s just going to slow down the process for everyone and lead to a bad user experience.
Samsung will release Oreo for the Galaxy S8 and the Galaxy S8+ in the Netherlands next week and that’s also when we expect some other markets like the United Kingdom to finally receive Oreo as well.
