Google Pixel and Pixel XL

Battery life on first couple of days with Oreo was horrible, but I'll put that down to "new toy" syndrome and the fact I was constantly playing with the phone... have to say that now I've got it on the Pixel XL and Pixel C, the commonality between the two devices is brilliant.
The phone in day-to-day use just gets out of the way, and the OS feels "complete". So much in the way of smooth running in how it behaves, and I reckon I'd still grab a Pixel if I had to get a new device immediately.
I'm still on the side of "keep the jack" with regard to future devices, as I've not bought any decent wireless headphones, but I might be persuaded, come the revolution.

Is the update to Oreo network specific? I've been checking daily but no update available.
I'm on O2.

I don't think anyone has got the OTA from stable yet, only beta users have. This confirms my suspicions the final final build hasn't been released yet.

Still waiting for my Oreo update

Same here.
But given the massive number of updates I have been receiving on some of the major Android apps I have installed.....Allo, Android Pay, Drive, Google, Maps, etc----I expect it to be very soon.

I've literally just opted in to beta to force the update. It's doing it now.

I've received mine without opting in for Beta, it's installed and whilst I've noticed some subtle differences, all seems good and no issues so far.
Just checked for latest update and presto, Android 8.0 download appeared. Downloading now.

No extra update for me (beta user on 8.0.0). I guess you guys are now on what we have been on the last few days. Let us know if you notice any deterioration in battery performance.
What I have noticed however is that just prior to and just after installing 8.0, there have been a huge number of automatic requests for app updates---at least 30. So clearly Google is setting up all my apps to run in optimal way for 8.0. I get updates all the time OTA but I have never had this many automatically update at one or two times.

That's a good point, I too have been getting bombarded with updates. I'll just have to see how things are doing in a week or so.

Just got the OTA too. No beta. Must have taken them a while to properly roll it out.
Clearly I was wrong about this not being the final build.

Anyone got the Oreo update and find the sound a bit muffled?
Not sure if its just me or the new lock/unlock sound is weak.

Have you tried manually refreshing?
