Although many of the United States carrier variants of the Samsung Galaxy S8, Galaxy S8 Plus, and Galaxy Note 8 have already received the upgrade to Android 9 Pie, users with unlocked variants have been left out in the cold.

The reason for that is because some users on carrier variants experienced some LTE problems when their upgrades rolled out. If this update has the same issues, it might be a good idea to wait it out and see.
If you received this Android 9 Pie update and have any issues (or everything is smooth sailing), let us know in the comments!
