Both phones have been recently spotted at Wi-Fi Alliance, but the most intriguing thing is that both are running Android 8.0 Oreo. It's not the first time that we've seen an old smartphone being certified at Wi-Fi Alliance because they are likely to receive a new major software update.
It usually takes about a month for a smartphone that was certified at the Wi-Fi Alliance with a new version of Android on board to actually receive it. It's true that Google is already rolling out Android 9.0 Pie, but these are just mid-range phones that are lucky to get Oreo.
So, if you own either of the two handsets – Samsung Galaxy J5 Prime or Samsung Galaxy Xcover 4, expect an Android 8.0 Oreo to drop in the coming weeks if nothing bad happens.
