      aceofgenerations, 26 Mar 2018Not sure if the news was true or not, but I thought Samsung... moreThat carrier is T-Mobile. But obviously they won't release Oreo on the S6 Gen before the S7 duo, which did not receive it yet.

        Not sure if the news was true or not, but I thought Samsung (or at least the carriers) had confirmed the 2015 flagship devices were getting Oreo.
