It must be noted that before the latest wave, the Oreo update had made rounds in some of the European countries. However, before the end of this year, the update will gradually arrive in other markets as well. Besides Oreo, the update also installs the latest Android security patch for the month of November 2018.
The Android Galaxy J7 (2016) was launched with Android 6.0 Marshmallow in March 2016 and received its first Android Nougat update in August last year. With the update to Android 8.1 Oreo, the South Korean tech titan has made sure that the users of the Galaxy J7 (2016) – a commercially successful device – aren’t left high and dry. However, this will be the last major OS update for them.
