The introduction of Android Oreo has
been painfully slow over the past few months, but it has recently found favor.
LG has Oreo in recent weeks displaced to a number of device variants, and today
there are three. After Oreo had promised Oreo for the LG G6 earlier this year,
the Verizon update was launched a few weeks ago. With the sprint variants of
the phone, this rollout is now being expanded in the USA. The update comes with
the security patch of May in tow and brings a whopping 1.8 GB on the scales.
In addition, users in the UK report
that Oreo is rolling on the unlocked LG G6. It does not yet mention what has
changed outside the usual, but the update comes with the April security patch.
Finally, Android Oreo is finally on LG V30 users of T-Mobile. This rollout
started earlier this month but was interrupted due to bug reports. The update
will now continue with the April security patch.
LG has released mobile phones with
gimmicks in recent years. Technologies deliberately designed to stand out from
the competition and show how innovative it can be. The LG G4 had an impressive
manual camera and handcrafted quality while the LG G5 was modular. However,
apart from pioneering spirit, these phones have not threatened the world of
Samsung and Apple. In a change of turn, LG said it created the G6 to give
people what they want. The result seems to be an all-rounder that manages to
provide LG's pioneering spirit in a responsive package.
The LG G6 features the world's first
Dolby Vision HDR display in a rugged, waterproof case with two cameras, a fast
operating system and excellent battery life. Does this mean that it's time for
Apple and Samsung to take LG seriously?
The company's Global Software Upgrade
Center is primarily responsible for accelerating updates to newer versions of
Google's Android mobile operating system, something that LG phones have been
struggling with. Against this background, the company confirmed in its press
release that the LG G6 will get its taste from Oreo in South Korea at the end
of April. The global rollout follows, so we believe that you can realistically
expect the UK and other major markets by the end of May. "One of the first
initiatives of LG's new Software Upgrade Center will be the launch of Android
Oreo for LG G6 later this month, starting in Korea, followed by other key
markets," LG said in a statement. This is undoubtedly good news for G6
owners, but the timing is no surprise either. As the LG G7 ThinQ set will be
introduced on May 2 or 3 (in New York City and Seoul), Chaebol has apparently
prepared the update, so there is no good reason why older phones do not get it
at about the same time would, too.
