Only for smartphones from 2018
Do you mean phones made in 2018?
yes, from future 😅
Plenty of Android phones made in 2017 will get the update. Google Pixel and Nokia 5, 6 and 8 for a start.
2016 Pixels are also getting Project Treble.
Even my Nexus 5X have Android O
I heard they're getting rid of the blob emojii... not happy about this :cry:
they are. And I hate them for it. Blobmojis were the best
bring back my turtle! 🐢
The blobs were the first emoji I loved. This piece captures their appeal:
omg. blobmoji were my first emoji. this isn't fair.
To me Project Treble is the most interesting feature of this new release...hopefully it will mean much faster releases of new Android versions in future

Android Oreo looks like a Super hero ;-)
i really like this new mascot.
just what we need, more emojis!
Yes, Emoji Makes Life Easier! Helpful To Save Time To Express Your Feelings by Words then Tapping an Emoji!

nexus 5x/6p, and pixel
Man. This co-branding thing with the makers of Oreo, and all the advertising/promotional projects with them, is just wild. What a thing to do with a new OS release.
yeah... it weirds me out a little. Next up... macOS Nabisco!
For newer android phones only. Good user product. Highly recommended
