Google confirms all smartwatches eligible for Android Wear Oreo upgrade

Google released a few days ago the so-called Android Wear Oreo update for smartwatches, an update that many customers have been waiting for. The update brings quite a lot of new features and improvements such as notification channels for apps, support for 7 new languages, the option to toggle for manually enabling “Battery saver” mode, and many more.

However, Google did not confirm which smartwatch are eligible for the Android Wear Oreo update that's currently rolling out to some customers. Today, the search giant rectified that small mistake and published the full list of wearable devices that have already received or are about to get the update.

Android Wear Oreo(8.0) update is already available in the following watches:

Fossil Q Venture

As you can notice, none of the smartwatches listed has an exact timing of the update next to it, which means you'll have to wait for additional info, or you can contact the device manufacturer and hope they will have more details on the matter.
