Google is reported to release Android 11 stable on September 8. But some old devices like Galaxy J8, Galaxy Tab A 10.5, and LG Q70 are receiving last year’s Android 10 only now. Also, it’s worth noting that update for these handsets and tablet is currently being pushed in batches in certain regions. Hence, it may take more time to reach every unit across the world.

Galaxy J8 Android 10 Update

Samsung is known to deliver only a single Android update to its budget devices. But the company has surprised everyone by rolling out One UI 2.0 to the Galaxy J8 launched in 2018 with Android Oreo-based Samsung Experience.

The handset was updated to One UI based on Android Pie last year. Now, it is also receiving the latest mobile software from Samsung. The update ( J810FPUU4CTG3) is currently rolling to the variant with model number SM-J810F in Russia. We expect other variants to receive the same update in the coming days.

Galaxy Tab A 10.5 Android 10 Update

Like the Galaxy J8, the Galaxy Tab A 10.5 also launched in 2018 with Android Oreo and was even updated to Android Pie last year. Now, it is also getting Android 10 update with One UI 2.0.

The update is rolling out to both WiFi (SM-T590) and LTE (SM-T595) variants with build numbers T590XXU3CTF9 and T595XXU4CTF9 respectively in a number of regions.

LG Q70 Android 10 Update

LG Q70 launched in 2019 powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 675 SoC with Android Pie onboard. It is now receiving Android 10 update with build number Q730N20c/Q730NO20c in the company’s home country South Korea.
