We have already mentioned it countless times: phone manufacturers are increasingly concerned about updating their smartphones, even those belonging to the mid and low range. Samsung, as the first telephone company today, is a good example of this. And it is that in addition to updating its high-end mobiles (Samsung Galaxy S8, Note 8, S9 and Note 9), it also does it with the mid-range ones. This time the lucky one is the 2016 Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime, a terminal that was launched in September 2016 and today is receiving the latest version of Android Oreo 8.1.

It seems incredible that a device from two years ago continues to be updated, and more if we talk about one belonging to the mid and low range. The Samsung Galaxy J7 Prime 2016 has been the last Samsung terminal to update to Android Oreo, and today some of its users are already receiving the aforementioned update to their devices.
This was confirmed by the GSMArena website a few minutes ago. An anonymous source has shared with the web some screenshots of the aforementioned update to Android Oreo, and it seems that it is already reaching a large part of the terminals. Specifically, the model of the captures is the 16 GB version of the Galaxy J7 Prime, however, it is expected that it will reach all versions of the homonymous model.
The update is also expected to reach both Spain and Latin America in the coming days in a phased manner, as usually happens with Samsung updates.
