HMD Global brought Android Pie to the Nokia 8 last week, but the firm isn't finished just yet. The Nokia brand licensee has just announced that the update is now heading to the Nokia 5.1 Plus too.
Juho Sarvikas, HMD Global's chief product officer, confirmed the news on Twitter. Exact details weren't disclosed, but we're expecting a phased roll-out over the next few days. Don't panic if you're not seeing the update on your device just yet.
Hope you left some space for dessert! We are now starting @Android 9 rollout for #Nokia5Plus

Screenshots of the change-log show that the Nokia 5.1 Plus update weighs in at over 1.2GB, and is said to include new system navigation functionality, Adaptive Battery, Adaptive Brightness, and "predictive application actions." The latter sounds like a fancy name for Android Pie's App Actions feature. Otherwise, you can also expect the December 2018 security patches to be included in this update.

We're happy to see Adaptive Battery apparently included in the roll-out, especially after this feature didn't make it into the Nokia 8's Android Pie update. HMD is reportedly bringing the feature to the 2017 flagship in a later update.
We're glad to see the Finnish company upgrading its cheaper phones, but Twitter users have voiced their displeasure at the lack of Pie for the Nokia 8 Sirocco. Sarvikas previously said the Sirocco's update would be "next in line" after the Nokia 8, so we can certainly see why owners of the pseudo-flagship would be upset.
