T-Mobile confirms Android 8.0 Oreo updates for several LG smartphones

LG users in the United States will be happy to learn the South Korean handset maker has decided to update several of its smartphones that are sold through T-Mobile.

The US carrier has just updated the support webpages of some of the smartphone LG launched in the country in the last couple of year. If you have one of them bought from T-Mobile, you can expect an Android 8.0 Oreo update pretty soon.

Here are all the LG smartphones that T-Mobile recently confirmed it will update to Android 8.0 Oreo: LG G5, LG G6, LG V20, LG V30, and LG V30+. There has been much talk as to whether or not LG would offer an Android 8.0 Oreo update for the G5, but it looks like LG and T-Mobile have decided to continue to support the old flagship.

The only thing that remains for us to determine is when exactly these Oreo updates will be released/ Well, at least we know that these updates are coming to T-Mobile users at some point.

You act as if Apple still updates the 5.

Little too old unfortunately. I'm surprised they are updating the G5

Well thanks for telling us which devices get it but more importantly is when and I'll already have upgraded to the S9+ by that time. Too late LG.

I'm wondering if this is why T-Mobile is currently out of stock on the v30 plus. It doesn't show up on their website and LG's webpage that attaches to T-Mobile's v30 plus web page is down. Also I've noticed that the LG v-series has the durability testing for the military standard or Samsung does not. That could explain why my LG phones have always been so durable
