— HTC USA (@HTCUSA) August 22, 2017 HTC is one of the first players to announce an official update confirmation for their flagship devices. Other smartphone makers or OEMs are yet to announce any details for the update schedules or any estimates for when their flagship devices will get Android 8.0 Oreo. So, the HTC devices like U11 and U Ultra which have been running Android 7.1 Nougat till now, will get some significant improvements in OS with Android Oreo. HTC had also been one of the fastest smartphone makers to roll out the Android Nougat 7.0 updates to its devices. The company pushed out the update to HTC 10 in just over 90 days. So, this comes as no surprise that the HTC flagships will be one of the first few devices to get the latest OS from Google. To recall, Android O which was launched on August 21 has some amazing features in comparison to its predecessor. Some notable features include Picture-in-Picture mode, notification dots, support for Bluetooth 5.0, Google’s Autofill Framework etc.
