Does my samsung mobile have or will it update to android 8?

During 2017, we have seen the birth and development of the still young Android Oreo. The latest version of Google's system has brought with it a series of very interesting features, such as video playback on a floating screen or the higher rate of updates, thanks to Project Treble. Precisely the interest in this new version of Android has made most manufacturers include or update a large part of their devices to Oreo. And among the brands that have bet the most so far on the new system has been Samsung.

If the Korean giant is known for something, it is for keeping most of its mobile range updated. Some of their smartphones are kept up-to-date even years after their market launch. Therefore, it is normal for many Samsung phone users to wonder if their phones can already be updated or the update to Android 8 is in development. And, because of this doubt, today we present the list of Samsung mobiles that can already be updated to Android 8 Oreo to date. In addition, we include all the terminals that the brand has launched since 2016 and that have such an update planned.
