Samsung Galaxy A8 (2018) gets new update

Samsung has started pushing out a new update to its Galaxy A8 (2018) smartphone. Arriving as version A530FXXU2ARB9, it's a security update that brings along Android fixes for the month of March.

The over-the-air roll out has just begun, so it may take time for the update to arrive in all regions where the device is available. Meanwhile, you can manually check for the update by heading to the Settings menu on your handset.

Oh! No! What an inconvenience... They took away the 3 x 3 keyboard. I type faster using one hand with a 3 x 3 keyboard. Please bring it back. Never take it away please.

I waited a year to upgrade from my a5 2016 to the a5 2017, ended up paying £190, bargain!, that's pretty much over half price of the initial rrp launch price.
