The Samsung Galaxy S7 Android Oreo update is confirmed and the former flagship could get the Android 8.0 upgrade sometime in April.

Samsung’s finally rolling the Android 8.0 Oreo update out to Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8+ users around the world. The update isn’t available in the United States just yet, but that should change in the near future as carriers finish up their testing behind the scenes.

The company’s starting with the Galaxy S8, but the Android 8.0 Oreo upgrade will expand to other Galaxy phones in the weeks ahead.

The company still hasn’t released an official list of Android 8.0 Oreo updates, but the Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge, and Galaxy S7 Active will get bumped up to the latest version of Android.

T-Mobile, one of Samsung’s carrier partners, has agreed to roll the Android 8.0 Oreo update out to the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Edge. The update’s also landed for one lucky Galaxy S7 owner in Vietnam, leaked for AT&T users, and emerged on a roadmap at Samsung Turkey.

Samsung Canada’s also talking about the Galaxy S7 and Galaxy S7 Oreo release date and it lines up with Samsung Turkey’s information.
