When we talk about smartphones, software support plays a very vital role for long term use. If you have noticed the software support in smartphone markets, majority of companies don’t provide equal software support to all their devices. They give priorities to their flagship phones. But there are some companies who gives equal software support, like Nokia or HMD Global. Earlier this month they announced that all their smartphones of 2017 will get Android Oreo update. From flagship Nokia 8 to entry level Nokia 3, every phone will get taste of Oreo. But if you recall, they didn’t mentioned any time frame for the updates.
Now today Nokia has announced the time frame for the Oreo update on their smartphones. A Nokia official Mark Trundle has announced that Nokia 3, 5 & 6 will get the Android Oreo update by the end of 2017 i.e. running year. Though they didn’t mentioned about the Nokia 8. But as it is the flagship device, it should get the update by the end of this year. Also do note that their entry level smartphone Nokia 3 will also get the Oreo update in the same time frame. Usually many OEMs 1st release latest Android update to their flagship and premium devices, then after some time they release it for their mid-range & entry level devices. So now we can say that Nokia 3 is also a good buy at it’s price, because as of now there’s no OEM who confirmed Android Oreo update for their budget devices.
So that’s all the information we have as of now. What are your thoughts on giving Oreo update to all devices in same time frame? Did you like this gesture by Nokia or not ? Do let us know in the comments below. Also stay tuned with us for more information.
