There’s a big question hovering around HMD Global right from audience across the world: when will these smartphones receive Android 8.0 Oreo update? Well, here’s the answer. HMD Global’s Chief Product Officer, Juho Sarvikas confirmed that all the four devices will receive Android O update, but he didn’t mention any time though.

“All of our smartphones will upgrade to Oreo, Nokia 3 included. No comments yet on timing so that I don’t get into trouble,” this is what Juho Sarvikas replied to a Twitter user when asked about the update release date.

So far, HMD has kept its work by releasing timely security patch updates, at least for the Nokia 5 and Nokia 6. Also, the Nokia 6 Indian unit recently received the August security patch update, which is a good thing to see.

The Nokia 3 will be receiving the Android 8.0 Oreo update as well. Of the four devices, the Nokia 3 is the low-end one priced at Rs. 9,499. At the launch of Nokia 8, the company confirmed that the device will receive Android O update faster than any other flagship smartphone. It’s interesting to see when HMD will roll out the update to the Nokia 8.
