It appears that Sprint is the next U.S. carrier that is offering Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 edge owners the possibility to update their smartphones to the latest version of the OS, Android 8.0 Oreo.
Although the carrier hasn't yet confirmed the update is being deployed on its support page, many Galaxy S7 and S7 edge users confirmed they have successfully captured the Android 8.0 Ore update on their smartphones.
Screenshots that further confirm Sprint is indeed rolling out Android 8.0 Oreo for Samsung Galaxy S7 and S7 edge are available as well, so if you own either of the two handsets, you should expect the update to be available for download very soon (if it's not already).
That leaves T-Mobile the last carrier in the United States that hasn't yet updated its own versions of Galaxy S7 and S7 edge. Also, the unlocked models are yet to receive the Oreo update as well, which is quite a surprise considering these should have been the first to get it.
Mint Mobile is now allowing you to get whichever plan you like for either three, six, or 12 months for just $15/mo. If you go for the six-month unlimited service, for instance, you'll now have to pay just $90 upfront instead of $210.
