Google will start distributing Android 8 this summer

Became known approximate date of commencement of distribution of Google’s Android OS 8 codename Android O. All will not happen in the fall, as was the case with 7 and 6 versions, but in the summer, and the first devices that received the update will, of course, Google Pixel.

Firmware update for Google Pixel “fly” is literally in August of this year — then the world and learns the meaning of the letter “O” in the name of the OSes. It should be noted that we are talking about the Google Pixel that is the first generation — the debut of the second version of these devices is also not far off, but according to rumors, before the mid-autumn we will not see them. Previously, Nokia and OnePlus also stated that transfer their latest mobile phones on the eighth of the Top, that is, it will be Nokia 3, 5 and 6 and the OnePlus 3 or 3T, but there is no any time.

As for the other smartphone manufacturers will have time to prepare the updates only to the second half of the autumn, and new devices based on Android O will begin to roll off the production line only in the first half of next year, following a long tradition. In Android 8, in fact, a lot of changes, but they are minor in nature, and in 11 the new iOS was presented a couple of days ago, useful innovations many times more. Only one dock bar for IPads is worth something, and the dark theme that Google has cut more from Android 5 Lollipop.
