List of Smartphones Expected to Get Android O Update

According to the reports, it looks like this decision has been taken to iron out a few bugs and issues. So unless and until Google feels like that the update is ready for the final rollout, unfortunately, users won’t be getting their hands on the new software. But with that said, we also suggest you not to come down to any conclusions. While the update is delayed, there is no info regarding this from Google. Hence it is highly possible that the bugs are minor and Google will manage to iron those out very quickly.

There are a few reports out there which also states that Google will make it official at the keynote where they will launch the new Pixel devices for this year.
