Rogers recently updated its upgrade schedule over on its community forum, letting us know what devices are getting operating system updates in the coming days.

On the same day, the Samsung Galaxy A70 will be getting the December security update. Meanwhile, the Motorola Moto G6 Play and the Moto G7 Play are getting the December update on January 10 and January 17, respectively. Rogers wants to caution its subscribers that while the carrier aims to release on these announced dates, sometimes there might be causes of delay. But it's a good indicator as to when you can expect the OS update to head your phone's way.
