T-Mobile's LG V40 ThinQ is latest in line to get Android 9 Pie

LG may have been very slow to start the rollout of the Android 9 Pie update to its V40 ThinQ^[1], but once it finally got the ball rolling there's been a lot of momentum for this release. We've already seen the update hitting units sold by AT&T^[2], Verizon^[3], and US Cellular^[4], as well as unlocked ones in the US^[5] and Europe^[6].

Now it's T-Mobile's turn to join the fun. V40 units sold by the magenta carrier are starting to receive the coveted update notification. It's a 1.7GB download, so make sure you grab it where you have enough bandwidth so you don't have to wait a lot for it to be done.

The changelog only mentions "various bug fixes, security and system improvements" alongside the uplift to Android 9 Pie, so you probably shouldn't expect a wildly different user experience after applying it. Still, it's something to look forward to. Of course it's likely to be a staged rollout, this, but if you're really impatient you can always try to manually check for updates through Settings.
