Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+ on Sprint and T-Mobile getting new update

T-Mobile and Sprint have started pushing out a new update to Samsung Galaxy S8/S8+ units on their networks. The T-Mobile update brings along May security patch, updated Bixby app, and improvements related to SD card stability. Sadly, the Bixby-related change doesn't enable Bixby Voice - the update just adds shortcuts at the top of the screen for Bixby Vision and Reminders. The update for the Galaxy S8+ weighs in at around 375MB. There isn't much known about the Sprint update, but we expect it to be similar to the one being rolled out by the magenta carrier. Via
