The new update is available as a FOTA (Firmware Over-the-Air) download, but it is important to note that the update could be rolled out in batches, so it may take a little more time for you to get the update notification on your Nokia 8. Should you not be prompted for this update, we advise you check for the update manually on your phone settings.
