Nearly six months after the Samsung Galaxy S8 got its Android Pie update from T-Mobile, the Galaxy S8 Active has started receiving its own slice of Pie.
T-Mobile is now updating the Galaxy S8 Active to version G892USQU5CSG7, which includes bump to Android 9 Pie with Samsung’s One UI. The update to One UI brings with it several new features, including interactive elements moving toward the bottom of the screen to make them easier to reach, support for replying to messages directly in the notification panel, Unicode 11.0 emojis, night mode, and new always-on display clock styles.
This update for the Galaxy S8 Active also includes the July 1, 2019 Android security patches.
The 1687.16MB update is rolling out over the air and some Galaxy S8 Active owners have already gotten it, so you should see it on your GS8 Active soon. You can also check for it manually by going into Settings > Software update > Download updates manually. It definitely took a while to get here, but at least the Galaxy S8 Active has finally gotten its Pie update.
Once your GS8 Active is updated to Android Pie, share your first impressions with us!
Thanks, BestMVNO!
