Android 8.1 Oreo coming to Razer Phone in April

Android Oreo is now available for the Razer Phone as a developer preview, based on 8.1

Android Oreo is now available for the Razer Phone as a developer preview, based on 8.1

While the Razer Phone comes with powerful hardware under the hood, it did disappoint some on the software front as it ran Android Nougat out of the box instead of Oreo.

Do you have a Razer Phone? Before you begin, be sure to have everything backed up and understand that even when the official 8.1 Oreo update does arrive, you won't receive it through an over-the-air update if on the Preview build.

Want in on the milk and cookies early? However, it is available to everyone as a developer preview.

The Android 8.1 Oreo update (developer preview edition) appeared for developers - or whoever else wanted to take part - over at [Razer] at their Android Oreo Developer Preview Image for Razer Phone page. The good news is that if you don't think you can wait that long, Razer has announced that the Android Oreo developer preview for the Razer Phone is available if you'd like to get a taste. The company confirmed the update plans along with a broad update window, saying that the new software will land on the Razer Phone in "mid to late April 2018".

California judge rules that coffee must be sold with cancer warning label
California's outsized market could make it hard to tailor packaging with warning labels specifically to stores in the state. That could be an astronomical sum in a state with close to 40 million residents, though such a massive fine is unlikely.

There's a developer preview that's accessible via the link in the tweet.

Having said that, as this is a developer preview, chances are you will encounter certain bugs and issues during your usage.

No update changelog for Android 8.1 has been released.
