Earlier today, we posted the first hands-on with Samsung Experience 10.0 based on Android 9 Pie for the Snapdragon Samsung Galaxy S9+. We showed off all the new features that we could find in our quick look. Many people might be wondering how they can install this update for themselves, and we now have instructions and the files that you’ll need to install Android Pie on your Samsung Galaxy S9+ with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845. Right now, we only have the build for the Snapdragon Samsung Galaxy S9+ but not the Snapdragon Galaxy S9 or either of the Exynos models. We expect there to be a regular Samsung Galaxy S9 build up in the next few days. No word on when an Android Pie build for the Samsung Galaxy Note 9 will be available, however.
This update includes the new Android Pie features like the horizontal recent apps overview and redesigned UI with an emphasis on rounded corners. However, it is missing features like Adaptive Battery. There are some new Samsung Experience 10.0 features like night theme and custom gestures. Some will love the update, while others will hate it. You can follow the instructions below to install the first Android Pie build on your Samsung Galaxy S9+ with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845.
