What a treat
Hungry for Android Oreo? If you own the HTC U11 smartphone and are in the US, you'll get to enjoy Google's new mobile operating system by year's end.
HTC USA took to Twitter to reveal the HTC U11 will be the first of its phones treated to Oreo beginning in Q4, or sometime between October and December. The HTC U Ultra and HTC 10 are also in for Android 8.0 at a later date.
In addition, HTC promises more Oreo details and new products due for the OS are on the way.
