Four years after launch, the legendary Samsung Galaxy S8 has received its latest security update. This smartphone became revolutionary in 2017, presenting a new unusual design and good hardware. This is largely due to the failure of the Galaxy Note 7 with its exploding batteries. Samsung needed to urgently divert public attention to something radically new, and it succeeded.
The Galaxy S8 is a huge leap forward in the company's entire flagship lineup. The borderless screen not only made it stand out from the competition, but also set a new trend, making it one of the most beautiful phones at the time. In addition to being attractive, the S8 offered buyers new hardware, a great camera, and good software. Best of all, his battery didn't explode.
Samsung recently updated its update policy for Galaxy mobile devices, announcing four years of support not only for flagships, but also for budget users. The most expensive smartphones first receive updates every month, and by the end of the term - once a quarter or even a year. This is one of the longest supported Android phones on the market right now.
On May 4, 2021, the base S8 and Plus officially ended their lifecycle. That being said, Active and Lite will still receive some updates
