HTC U11 Life
which was launched alongside HTC U11 Plus some weeks ago has started
receiving Android 8.0 Oreo update. Generally, the international version
of this smartphone launched with Android One which is a refined version
of Android Oreo but units in the U.S. which have been offered either
unlocked or by T-Mobile comes with Android 7.1. This update is currently
rolling out to the unlocked units. U.S. users of this smartphone may
have to wait for days (perhaps weeks) for this update to arrive every
unit as it just started rolling out.
HTC’s VP of Product Management, Mo
Versi, announced this update via his official Twitter handle. As for the
units sold by T-Mobile, there is no news regarding when they will
receive this update but it is expected that they will receive it sooner
rather than later. During the launch of this smartphone, HTC promised
that the U11 Life
will get Android Oreo within 30 days. With this current release, the
company has kept to part of its promise while we wait for the T-Mobile
units to get their update.
