Android Oreo has been around for a while. Devices have already been updating to this latest version, and more and more mobiles receive it. Samsung, as always, is at its own pace, and despite the fact that Android 8.0 arrived on the Galaxy S8 a few months ago, the Galaxy Note 8 did not start receiving it until a few weeks ago. Little by little it was arriving in Europe. Today, Spanish users with this device are going to start receiving it. Next, we will tell you how you can get the update and all the details of the latest version of Android on your Samsung device.
The update is coming to the Galaxy Note 8 PHE models, which are the ones sold in Spain. Devices purchased from Vodafone also receive the latest version. The update, which has the number N950FXXU3CRC1 weighs about 1.5 GB, and includes Samsung Experience 9.0, the new version of Samsung's customization layer. It incorporates improvements such as the ability to clone apps, keyboard improvements, Bixby improvements and better battery management. Of course, it includes the very novelties of Android 8, such as Picture in Picture, support for faster updates, improved notifications and performance. Finally, we must emphasize that the March patch is also included.

If you have automatic updates, you will not have to do anything. Once your device is connected to a stable Wi-Fi network, the update will download. Otherwise, you must go to 'Settings' and 'System update'. There check that you have the latest version available to download and install. As always, remember to have a minimum of 50 percent battery available, as well as enough internal storage space to download and apply the installation. As this is a major update, it is highly recommended that you make a backup of your data. You can do it in the system settings, through the Samsung options or the Google account.
