Nokia too. The Nokia 5 and 6 started getting the August patch shortly after Google released it for its Pixels and Nexuses.

    If Android upgrades and patches roll out almost the same time for Nokia that means they are not pushing in blotwares in their phones....
    That makes my choice for next phone a Pixel XL 2 or a Nokia 8. Now depends on who has the better camera. :)

      I'm happy to see Nokia and Huawei (I think) and OnePlus (I think) releasing the latest security patches. I'm just wondering how long they will take to release Android O once it's out for our Pixels.

        Very nice, but I really must point-out that August 1 (as seen in that Nokia screenshot) is just a partial security patch, not the full thing (which is the August 5 level). Still much better than the majority of other Androids though.

          Hope it comes for all android devices, especially having patch level.

                          Bullshit! My Nexus 6 latest security level is April and there's been no updates after that.

                                I wonder whether this patch is going to resolve the ongoing issue some users are having with their fingerprint sensor on Nexus and Pixel? It seems like a lottery to see if your sensor is going to keep working after each update.
