Samsung udostępnia wykaz zmian z Androida Oreo dla Galaxy S8

Samsung Galaxy S8 i Galaxy S8+ otrzymały już aktualizację do systemu Android 8.0 Oreo, choć po drodze koreańska firma zaliczyła przestój w dostarczaniu uaktualnienia. Teraz udostępniła stosowną listę, w której wyszczególnia, co tak naprawdę wnosi najnowsza aktualizacja firmware do wspomnianych smartfonów. Pojawia się sporo nowości.

Samsung Galaxy S8 i Galaxy S8+ były pierwszymi smartfonami Koreańczyków, które zaczęły dostawać system Android 8.0 Oreo. Proces dystrybucji aktualizacji z czasem jednak wstrzymano, bo pojawiły się problemy. Teraz firma ponownie udostępnia uaktualnione wersje firmware. Dostarczyła również listę zmian, jakie wprowadza nowy system do Galaxy S8. Znajdziecie ją na samym dole (w j. angielskim).

Samsung Galaxy S8 i S8+ ze zmianami w systemie DeX i ulepszeniami w klawiaturze

Jak widać, Samsung wprowadził wiele zmian, takich jak ulepszenia własnej klawiatury, panelu krawędzi, ekranu blokady, funkcji Always On Display, chmury, narzędzia Find My Mobile i obsługi stacji DeX. Pojawia się również sporo poprawek, jednak nie są one aż tak istotne, jak wspomniane zmiany, dlatego nie znalazły się na liście.

Samsung nie miał szczęścia w przypadku aktualizacji smartfonów Galaxy S8 do systemu Android 8.0 Oreo. Proces rozpoczął się w Niemczech, a później aktualizacja trafiła do Polski. Pojawiły się jednak problemy takie jak nieoczekiwany restart urządzeń i dlatego dystrybucja aktualizacji została wstrzymana. Potem proces ruszył ponownie. Poniżej wspomniany changelog ze strony producenta.

Android version : Oreo(Android 8.0.0)
Release Date : 2018-02-28
Samsung Experience 9.0 upgrade with Android Oreo

Samsung Experience 9.0 brings you Android Oreo, with exciting new features from Samsung and Google based on feedback from users like you.

We recommend that you back up your important data to keep it safe during the upgrade.
Some apps, including Samsung Pay, Samsung Internet, Samsung Notes, and Email, should be updated individually before you can update your OS.
Here’s what’s new.

Biometrics

To improve your security, features that use biometrics (face, fingerprints, and irises) are only available when you use a secure screen lock type (pattern, PIN, or password). When you switch to a non-secure screen lock type (Swipe or None), biometric authentication is suspended for unlocking and for verification in apps like Samsung Pay and Samsung Pass. If you’re using biometrics now without a secure screen lock type, you’ll be able to continue after the upgrade, but changing to a secure screen lock type is recommended.
