Update [October 18, 2017]: Samsung could release the Android Oreo update for the Tab S3 sets by the end of 3rd quarter of 2018.
Update [April 21,2017]: Samsung is starting to push out the April security patch to the Galaxy Tab S3. The update, which comes in as version T820XXU1AQD6, also includes various bug fixes and under-the-hood performance improvements. Before downloading the update, ensure that your device has at least 50% charge and download over WiFi to save on data charges.
Samsung launched the Tab S3 tablet in two variants, WiFi and LTE, and both ran Android 7.0 Nougat OS out of box. Naturally then, the very first real update for the Tab S3 is Oreo, whether that be Android 8.0, Android 8.1. We would share all Tab S3 Oreo related news with you here, but we have more than Oreo in this page.
On this page, you would find all Tab S3 update, along with their changelog and firmware download links. In case your Tab S3 wasn’t receiving OTA updates, or you have trouble installing an update on your Tab S3 and thus are stuck to current OS, you can update your Tab S3 manually at home, using your Windows laptop or PC, using the firmware we have provided below.
Galaxy Tab S3 Android 8.0 Oreo update
Tab S3 is Samsung’s most premium tablet offering. Launched with Android 7.0, and even though yet to see Android 7.1.1 OTA, we are pretty sure they would release the Oreo for Tab S3 on priority basis, maybe after they are done with Android 8.0 for Galaxy S8, S8 Plus, Galaxy S7, but certainly before the Tab A 2017.
Because Samsung 8.0 update is yet to enter beta program for the likes of S8, we’re yet to see Samsung’s Oreo build in flesh, even though it’s said to be in the works for long time.
Samsung hasn’t revealed its Oreo plans yet, and that is why we do not have a concrete release date for Tab S3 Oreo. But yes, you can safely expect the Android 8.0 for your Tab S3 to drop before the end of Q2 2018, or early Q3 2018.
