Samsung refreshes Android Pie schedule, Galaxy Note 9 and Note 8 to be updated sooner

Samsung Galaxy Note 9 hands-on

After releasing its Android Pie update roadmap last month, Samsung has now tweaked its schedule, and thankfully, it's good news.

Samsung now says that the Galaxy Note 9 is slated to begin receiving its Android Pie update in January 2019, up from the February 2019 target we heard before. The Galaxy Note 8's update target has been moved up a month, too, and it's now expected to begin getting Pie in February 2019.

Other devices that've had their Android Pie update timing moved up include the Galaxy A8 Star, Galaxy J4, Galaxy J7 Duo, and Galaxy Tab S3 9.7.

Here's what Samsung's updated Android Pie roadmap looks like:

  • Galaxy Note 9 (January 2019)
  • Galaxy S9 (January 2019)
  • Galaxy S9+ (January 2019)
  • Galaxy Note 8 (February 2019)
  • Galaxy S8 (March 2019)
  • Galaxy S8+ (March 2019)
  • Galaxy Tab S4 10.5 (April 2019)
  • Galaxy A6 (April 2019)
  • Galaxy A6+ (April 2019)
  • Galaxy A7 2018 (April 2019)
  • Galaxy A8+ 2018 (April 2019)
  • Galaxy A8 Star (April 2019)
  • Galaxy A9 2018 (April 2019)
  • Galaxy J2 2018 (April 2019)
  • Galaxy J2 Core (April 2019)
  • Galaxy J4 (April 2019)
  • Galaxy J6+ (April 2019)
  • Galaxy On7 2018 (April 2019)
  • Galaxy J4+ (May 2019)
  • Galaxy J6 (May 2019)
  • Galaxy J8 (May 2019)
  • Galaxy J7 2017 (July 2019)
  • Galaxy J7 Duo (July 2019)
  • Galaxy J7 Neo (July 2019)
  • Galaxy Tab S3 9.7 (August 2019)
  • Galaxy Tab A 2017 (October 2019)
  • Galaxy Tab A 10.5 (October 2019)

The Galaxy Note 9 and Note 8 are two of Samsung's recent flagship smartphones, so it's exciting to hear that they'll begin receiving their Android Pie updates earlier than anticipated. Of course, the exact update timing will vary by region, but this updated timing does suggest that Samsung will be finished working on these updates sooner than expected, which could mean earlier rollouts for other regions as well.
