20:07:21 - Mike said : Hello, Joe Lyons . My name is Mike. How may I help you?
20:07:33 - Joe Lyons said : Hi Mike. Will the Honor 8 be receiving android oreo?
20:08:51 - Mike said : I'm afraid that we do not have any official information regarding that. We only know that the Mate 9 is the only model which is currently added in the Oreo beta program.
The beta program is slated to be finalized during December, at which point more of our models will be added to the Oreo update plan.
20:09:09 - Mike said : The Honor 8 will most likely be added, as well, but we did not receive any official information regarding the models which will be added.
20:09:18 - Joe Lyons said : Thank you!
20:09:26 - Mike said : You're very welcome.
20:09:37 - Mike said : Would there be anything else that I may assist you with?
20:10:11 - Joe Lyons said : No thank you. Thanks for your help

The Magic 8 Ball says "Ask again later" so that was no help. The fortune teller told me that my long dead great, great grandfather said "maybe" , so that was better. So, I was walking the beach and found this strange bottle. While rubbing the sand off a genie appeared and gave me one wish, so I thought, here's my chance. For my one wish I said, "I want Oreo on my phone". So now I have it, but the trouble is, I can't see the screen for that damn cookie stuck to the screen.

My dad works for nintendo and he says we are getting oreo. Checkmate non-believers.
I wish I could report this as 'trash' so it got deleted.
This Prue Oreo thing has been discussed all over XDA, just wait for an official announcement from Honor's social media.

That settles it then, since I heard those rumors also. It's probably something to do with Nintendo buying Huawei and renaming their Honor series Pacman.

MONDO MobIT: Which models will Android Oreo come in yet?
George Zao : "The tests are in progress, so the list of devices is not final, but we try to expand it as much as possible. For now, I know that Oreo will soon be on Honor 8, Honor 8 Pro, Honor 9, Honor V9, but also some other Honor smartphones. "

yes and im also hopeful that they will keep the dark mode for our AMOLED screens or even add a dark theme in zte themes improve camera a little more and also daydream
Those in the beta program had to sign a non-disclosure agreement with ZTE. So close your eyes and imagine Nougat. That's what it looks like.
Can a moderator please close this thread? According to the NDA that somehow got posted on here, people that are a part of the beta program are not even allowed to tell people they are a part of the beta program. Fishing like this just seems to get people wound up over nothing.

try to imagine it like oxygenOS or like the custom ROMs thatd be sooo cool
Yes is weird they had to make a NDA in that case a stock android appearance would not hurt anyone

nobodys talking about classified stuff about nougat here we're just speculating we're going off topic now
If I was ZTE I would've done a completely public beta or leaked it myself. Hype is free marketing and for a no-carrier phone it's the only way to get people to buy.
Don't worry my good sir, the release is closer than you think.

Hurrah for the imagination then at least I know I am not the only one on the hype train hopefully ZTE won't disappoint us.

Payoff would be very low
Just doesn't make "business" sense, to release Oreo, on older units, right before you release your brand new model.
Would be "nice", but I just can't see them doing it from a business perspective. Realistically, I don't see it coming to the
older units OFFICIALLY until around the Christmas holiday time frame, if that soon.
If "older" flagship does not receive android update, that would not generate much trust from consumers in company to buy new phone.
At the very least let us get EMUI 5.1 on our Mate 9.

That's silly to say the least, a phone isn't about software, I would buy the mate 10 if I could, even if I had 8.0 on the Mate 10. This argument is invalid, to me at least...

That's your opinion, mate, but I truly disagree.
Many customers pay attention to new software features that improve the overall user experience (see Android's doze improvements) and that are not related to hardware.
So, IMHO Huawei's hurry to release Mate 9's Oreo beta BEFORE Mate 10's release seems to be all about customers confidence-making

Yeah kinda sounds silly when I read it now, what I meant was, it's not all about software updates, ffs, the mate 9 is the best phone I've had until this day, why whine about not having O or P or whatnot. Of course I love new updates with new functions, used to be an update freak, not anymore I guess.
It will be true that tomorrow it will be released for LG G6 H870-- 10 may -2018
Any source???
I read this recently on Reddit, but the guy did not put any sources either..
I think we just have to wait a few days / weeks, there are two versions that were updated last days, there is no reason that it does not happen quickly on others !
So just relax the ass, and enjoy life while waiting ?

#FakeNews
Posting a opinion is one thing, but saying an "opinion" without any evidence and the only thing to say about it is "just believe me that it will", is a total atrocious behavior.

may not be so privileged .. for the v30 there was two updates, one in 8.0 without ThinQ, and one in 8.1 with ThinQ in the same week, just depended on the model..
Maybe we will be lucky enough to have ThinQ functions directly, with a little hope :silly:

For ****s sake stop asking for android P
It's still in beta and only for a handful of devices
Wait until the end of the year and you'll likely get it
There is already a port. And it works like a charm. Try it out. There is a detailed tutorial in the link too.

I know a guy, who has a friend, who works with someone who knows this other guy (who probably knows Kevin Bacon - statistically speaking) who thinks P on A1 should be out in a couple of days.

Yep........ It's called "Pie".
I know it's too early to ask this question, but I wonder if there is any chance that our phones get android pie update ? HTC did not confirmed it yet, though. What do you think about it ?
It was a notable omission from the list of phones due to get P in their recent tweet, however I've also heard its just going to be super late ie Q2 2019. For what it's worth I've sent like a dozen emails to HTC none of which have been replied to, simply asking why I'm still on march 2018 security update and when the phone is getting P.
