Android Oreo update confirmed for Lenovo K8, K8 Note & K8 Plus

All of them currently run on stock Android 7.1.1 Nougat operating system.

Lenovo has now confirmed that its K8 series of smartphones will get the latest 8.0 Oreo update. As per the company website, it will be releasing the Android 8.0 Oreo update for K8, K8 Note and K8 Plus smartphones next year. All of them currently run on 7.1.1 Nougat operating system. No other Lenovo devices will be getting the Android 8.0 update.

However, sadly the Lenovo K8, K8 Note & K8 Plus smartphones will only get the update in mid of the year i.e around June and July 2018. While the K8 will get Oreo update in June 2018, the K8 Plus and K8 Note will receive the update a month later in July. Since all these smartphones run on Stock Android which doesn’t take so much time for upgrades, it is still hard to believe that the company is taking so long to roll out the Oreo update.
