amazing smartphone, I bought it from the 1st launch.. I admit this phone isn't so powerful, but for daily use, this thing is amazing.. Mid-end smartphone with flagship screen, solid quality build and good design.. The size isn't too big, just fit to my hand..

I just tried to set a reminder of a date and time, but unless I also allow it to access my location which is not needed it will not allow me to save the reminder. Way too invasive, there is not location, just a time reminder.

It got Oreo fresh from the box, in the middle of 2018. So, yes, this got Android 9 Pie, via update, in the end of the day.

First, you must explore the Setting of phone, for

Second, if you have done it and it does not work, go to Authentic Samsung Service Center.

If any of you just got your A8 and aren't planning to upgrade yet, IMO just buy ESET mobile security. I use it and it's great, no issues at all. At least it gets daily update definitions and is light on the system lol
Norton's is of course good as well. Why not spend a little for piece of mind? Have a great day.
