With Samsung recently detailing its Experience 9 software suite, it's reasonable to assume the Galaxy S8/S8+ Oreo update roll out is imminent. However, some markets, it appears, will have to wait longer for the update.

A user from the Maghreb region of North Africa (which consists of Algeria, Morocco Tunisia, Libya and Mauritania) got in touch with Samsung support to enquire about the update, and was told the roll out is scheduled for February end.

There's currently no official information on which markets will get the update first and exactly when, but what now looks apparent is that the roll out won't complete anytime before Q1 this year.
