Though Android Nougat isn't yet commonplace — it's on less than 15% of Android smartphones — eyes are now turning towards its recently revealed successor, Android 8.0 Oreo. The new software arrived earlier this week, so you can expect to hear lots about device updates in the coming months.

In a tweet sent out yesterday, HTC wrote that the HTC U11, the HTC U Ultra and the HTC 10 would all get the update to Android Oreo worldwide.

Are you pleased to see HTC confirm Oreo on its devices? Should other manufacturers come out and do the same? Give us your thoughts in the comments.
