Galaxy S8 on Android 8.0 Oreo: how to register for the beta program

Galaxy S8 on Android 8.0 Oreo: the beta will be soon available

If we believe the official FAQ page of the Galaxy Beta Program, which has just been put online by Samsung, a beta program for Android 8.0 Oreo will be launched very soon on the Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 + manufacturer. This beta program will be divided into two phases. At first, it will be reserved for users based in South Korea, the United States and the United Kingdom. Subsequently, the second wave of countries will benefit from the program: France, Spain, Germany, Poland, China, and India.

For now, however, we do not know when this program will be deployed. On the other hand, the official page also reveals how to register for the program. Just create a Samsung account, and download the Samsung Plus app on the Google Play Store or Galaxy Apps Store. Within the application, a menu “Registration” allows submitting an application for registration in the Galaxy Beta Program. If the user meets certain criteria required by Samsung, which are not detailed, the registration request will be validated.

Once this procedure is done, the user can install the beta version of Android 8.0 Oreo by going to the settings of his smartphone. In the “Software update” section, the “Download updates” button is used to download the Android update. Of course, it will be necessary to wait until the beta is available in France to be able to download it. Samsung recommends downloading the update in WiFi and performing a backup of the smartphone data on a PC using the Samsung Smart Switch application.

To avoid software compatibility problems, the manufacturer also recommends updating the applications installed on the smartphone in their latest version. For users of Galaxy S8 and Galaxy S8 +, this beta program is an opportunity to try the update Android 8.0 Oreo in the preview. For Samsung, this program will collect feedback from users to improve its update before the final deployment. Beta testers can leave their feedback to Samsung via the Samsung Members app. As a reminder, Android Oreo should be available on the Samsung Galaxy early 2018.
