Samsung resumes Galaxy S8/S8+ Android Oreo rollout


Earlier this month, Samsung had initiated rolling out the Android 8.0 Oreo update for the flagship Galaxy S8 duo, that update however encountered some glitch which lead to the eventual suspension of the rollout. It has only been a couple of days since we spotted the Galaxy Note 8 on Wi-Fi alliance running Oreo, and while we speculated that the development could be an indication that the suspended roll out for the Galaxy S8 could be resumed soon, the device is now reportedly receiving a fresh dose of the Android 8.0 Oreo.
