Vivo is no longer just another Chinese manufacturer trying to copy Apple; as a matter of fact, it has not only risen as a global smartphone OEM to reckon with, one can go as far as saying that the Chinese company has managed to beat both Samsung and Apple when it comes to introducing true innovation. If you are wondering why anyone would think so, then you probably don't know that Vivo has already showcased the in-display, under the screen fingerprint scanner with its Vivo X20 Plus UD smartphone, that both Apple and Samsung have failed to do, even after repeated attempts by the latter in the last year or so. As if that was not impressive enough, take a look at the leaked shots of this smartphone from Vivo, which will likely be coming in with the in-screen fingerprint scanner and this gorgeous, truly bezel-less display.
Sources are unsure whether this is the Vivo Xplay 7 or not, but it could very well be. It would be really interesting to see if Vivo also packs in a 4K resolution in that beautiful display, just like the rumors had been predicting. If they do, that would make Vivo the only company apart from Sony to have a smartphone with a 4K display. It is quite possible that the upcoming Snapdragon 845 SoC will be powering the device as well, alongside an internal storage capacity of 256GB/512GB. Would you buy this beauty if it became available in your country?

It has been a few days now since Samsung first began updating the Galaxy S8 and S8+ with the final Android 8.0 Oreo version in India, Poland and France, but those updates were only reserved for the Galaxy Beta users. As expected though, the same update has now also started to roll out for the regular users who did not sign up for the Beta program.
This time the list is quite expansive as SamMobile earlier confirmed the fact that the update is seeing release in India, UAE, Turkey, Belgium Norway and Germany. This isn't necessarily a complete list though, because it is perfectly possible for you to receive Android 8.0 Oreo even if your region was not mentioned here. In fact, by the time you are reading this, we are pretty sure that a few other countries are also seeing the update rolled out to S8 and S8+ users. Just in case you are wondering, the firmware version remains G950FXXU1CRAP/G955FXXU1CRAP for the Galaxy S8/S8+, just as it was for the beta testers.

Updates for the latest flagship smartphones to the latest Samsung tablets, we have it all on today's list of daily updates. Go through the tutorial to make sure that you know how to safely flash custom updates manually onto Samsung smartphones with Odin3.
You have probably already heard that Samsung has started to push out the Android Oreo 8.0 update to various sections of the globe for the Galaxy S8 and S8+, but at this moment we are not sure about all the areas that are getting the updates. As per reports from various sources and websites, India, France and Poland are the regions that are getting the update as of now, but if you can see the update for your phone and you reside in some other area, do let us know about that in the comments.
A point to keep in mind is that the update is only going live for the users that had signed up for the Galaxy Beta program on their devices. If you didn't, you will have to wait for a few more days before the same becomes available for you, in a much larger package. As far as this OTA update is concerned though, it comes in with firmware version G950FXXU1CRAP and G955FXXU1CRAP for the Galaxy S8 and S8+ respectively.
In the meanwhile, check out our firmware section to find all the latest updates for your Samsung smartphones and tablets.
