Owners of eligible Galaxy Note 8 models on Verizon and Comcast's networks will soon be notified about the new update's availability via a push notification. Those who are feeling particularly imaptient can always attempt triggering the over-the-air download manually from the smartphone's Settings app. Alternatively, SamMobile's firmware archive contains the latest official Android images made for this particular Galaxy Note 8 iteration.
The Galaxy Note 8 is quickly approaching its third full year on the market, meaning its after-sales software support is now coming to a definitive end, as well. Like all major Samsung flagships released in recent memory, this particular lineup has been enjoying monthly security patches for almost three years. Its last such update should arrive in September, following which it will start receiving security updates on a quarterly basis.
All things considered, the Galaxy Note 8 had a rather good run, especially given its unenviable task of making up for the disaster called the Galaxy Note 7. Today, nearly three years following its debut, the Galaxy Note family has completely shaken off its ghosts of combustible past and appears to have a guaranteed place in Samsung's mobile plans – both near-term and in the long run.
