    Samsung has gradually been rolling out the Android 9 Pie to more devices and it's the Galaxy J8's turn today. The company has released the Galaxy J8 Android Pie update today. It brings all of the features that are part and parcel of the current Android OS iteration.

    The update also comes with the latest security patch for the month of April 2019. The update is currently being rolled out in Russia. It's only a matter of time now before users in other markets get it as well. The firmware is already available for download from our database.

You can also download it right away from our firmware section.

    The Galaxy J8 is also one of the phones in Samsung's budget lineup that received AR Emoji last year. That particular update also brought support for dual VoLTE to the handset. The highlight of the latest update is obviously One UI, Samsung's latest custom skin for Android.
