The fact that almost all Nokia-branded smartphones from HMD areunder the Android One program, is also expected to help the company roll out Android P sooner than most, but exactly how soon it will be, remains to be seen.

While the exact ETA for the update is still up in the air, the one thing that needs to be pointed out here is that HMD Global has already confirmed that all of its Nokia-branded smartphones will receive Android P.

While theNokia 7 Plus is the only HMD handsetglobally to have the Android P update, the Nokia 6 and Nokia 8 Sirocco have also joined the Android P beta program in China. It certainly looks like a promising start to Android P in terms of updates, which is one ofGoogle’s major focus areaswith the next version.
