Shulou(Shulou.com)05/31 Report--

­Google has released the fourth and last previewed version of Android 8.0 to developers, and it will be up to the company to push the final version to supported Pixel and Nexus devices. Last month, the company revealed that it plans to push Android 8.0 (expected to use the code name "Oreo / Oreo") to AOSP (Android open source project) and ecosystem in the third quarter of 2017, and users of Pixel / Pixel XL devices will be the first to taste it.

­but now, according to well-informed sources such as Evan Blass, the release date of Android 8.0 is just around the corner. "Android O is scheduled to arrive in the week of August 21, most likely on August 21," Evan Blass said on Twitter.

­Android 8.0 will bring many UI and underlying enhancements, as well as many new features, such as allowing devices that run out of space to update the Android operating system, supporting the latest and best Bluetooth 5.0 technology (expected to log on to HTC U11).

­of course, Android 8.0 will log on to all devices that have currently received development previews, including Google's own Pixel / Pixel XL, Pixel C, Nexus 5X / Nexus 6P, and Nexus Player.

­as for other devices, including the HTC U11 mentioned above, it is not clear when they will be able to use Android 8.0. According to recent statistics, Android 7.x Nougat currently runs on only 13.5% of devices worldwide.
