Android Oreo review: it’s what’s inside that counts | The Verge
The Verge – Every year, each review of the new version of Android has to come with a bunch of caveats — and the same applies to Android 8 Oreo. Android reviews are always about the future, not the present. Unlike iOS, you may not get the features you're reading about here until you buy your next phone.
