Juho Sarvikas – Chief Product Officer at HMD Global – announced the roll-out of Android 8.0 Oreo update for Nokia 5 and Nokia 6. The updates for both these smartphones are rolled out over the air, and, as always, are rolled out in a phased manner which means only a small number of users will receive the update initially.
However, you can expect the roll-out to complete within a week or two. And, if the update notification doesn’t pop-up on your smartphone, then you can check for the update manually by heading over to the Settings menu.
This Android 8.0 Oreo update is around 1.8 GB in size, and, you can only download it over a Wi-Fi connection. The update carries version number 5.220, and, comes with features like picture-in-picture mode, notification, autofill, and more. Besides, the update also comes with Android security patch that’s dated January 1, 2018.
